FAQs
1. What makes Geve's Bees honey different?
Our honey is produced using sustainable, eco-friendly beekeeping practices that prioritise the health and wellbeing of our bees. We focus on quality, ensuring our honey is pure, natural, and free from additives or preservatives.
2. Where are your bees located?
We began our journey in Trinidad & Tobago and are now based on the Isle of Wight. Our bees thrive in these natural environments, contributing to the unique flavour of our honey.
3. Are your products organic?
While we do not hold an official organic certification, our beekeeping practices are designed to be as natural and chemical-free as possible to maintain environmental sustainability and bee health.
4. Can I visit your apiary?
Currently, we do not offer public visits to our apiary to avoid disturbing our bees and maintain their health, but we regularly share updates and information about our beekeeping journey on our website.
5. How should I store my honey?
Keep your honey in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Make sure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent moisture from entering, which can affect its quality.
6. Do you offer other bee products besides honey?
Yes, we also produce natural beeswax, pollen, and propolis, all harvested using sustainable methods to ensure purity and natural goodness.
7. How can I place an order?
Orders can be placed through our website’s shop section. We offer secure payment options and ship directly to your address.
8. Do you ship internationally?

9. What steps do you take for bee health and sustainability?
We implement eco-friendly practices such as minimal interference, organic treatments when necessary, and habitat preservation to support the natural lifecycle and health of our bees.
10. Can I buy your honey in local stores?
Our honey is primarily sold online, but we occasionally supply to selected local shops on the Isle of Wight. Check our website or contact us for current stockists.
11. How long does your honey last?
When stored properly, our honey can remain good indefinitely due to its natural preservative properties. It may crystallise over time, which is normal and can be reversed gently with warming.
