We’re looking forward to being at Port Sunlight Village Market this Sunday!

This month’s market coincides with the annual Port Sunlight Race, so the village is expected to be buzzing with thousands of visitors and a fantastic atmosphere throughout the day.

If you’re coming along, please allow extra travel time as some road closures will be in place for the race. Access to the market at The Stables remains available, and travelling by train is recommended where possible.

Come and enjoy a great day of shopping, food, entertainment, and community spirit, and don’t forget to stop by and say hello!

🐝 Recently we safely removed a large bumblebee nest from a shed and rehomed it 🌿

If you have an active nest, feel free to get in touch at [email protected] (email is best as we’re not always on Messenger).

At this time of year, bees are very active. If they’re bumblebees and not causing an issue, it’s often best to leave them be, they’ll usually move on naturally as the season changes.

If you do have a nest less active, remember to block up any gaps to stop them returning, and you can deter them with strong scents like cinnamon or mint.

Please avoid spraying or harming them , they’re vital pollinators and just getting on with their work 🐝💛

🐝🔧 Operation: Get Ready

A bit of organising behind the scenes as we prepare for new bees from splitting our hives, all part of managing colonies and helping to reduce swarming 🌿

Making sure everything’s in place now means we’re ready when the bees are 🐝✨

🐝🍯 Our honey nuts have been a really popular choice with our customers lately

Perfect spooned over yoghurt, scattered on salads, or just enjoyed straight from the jar, simple, versatile, and full of flavour ✨

A little tidy up at the WBC hive today 🐝

Just sorting the space out and getting things as they should be… it’s looking a bit tired though, think it’s due a fresh coat of paint soon 🎨

🐝🌼 Happy World Bee Day
May is a busy time in the beekeeping calendar — we’re watching colonies grow stronger, keeping a close eye on their progress, and (weather depending!) sometimes even seeing the first spring honey coming in 🍯
If you’d like to help pollinators, here are a few simple things you can do:
🌱 Grow more flowers

🌿 Let parts of your garden grow a little wild

✂️ Cut your grass less often

🍂 Leave undisturbed spots for insects to shelter

🚫 Avoid pesticides
Small changes can make a big difference 🐝💛

🐝🌿 We’ve been working on something new…

Our latest addition, honey & mint sauce 🍯✨

Still in the works, but we’re excited about this one. Watch this space 👀
