Douce Brise Apiary - Les Avants

The 2024 harvest is ready!

 

What joy! A new season in the company of our beloved ones is gradually coming to an end. And if this season has been really strange and not always easy, with a very rainy spring, swarms in all directions, colonies that all had a different rhythm, the moments spent at the apiary have been magical, as always with them 🐝. And then, they worked like crazy in July, to still bring back a small harvest 🍯

 

This year, we wanted to try an old dream that had been on our minds for a long time: we brought two hives even higher, to Chessy, at an altitude of 1600m where they apparently thrived in the blueberry fields.

So, in addition to the honey with complex and delicate aromas from Les Avants, we are pleased to offer this rare blueberry and alpine flower honey, with a fruity taste 🫐💐 (but in reduced quantities). Yum yum! 😋

 

Available are pots of:

500 g. (CHF 15.-) and 250 g. (CHF 8.-) for "Les Avants" and
250 g. (CHF 10.-), for “Chessy”.

If you are tempted, send us a message at info@doucebrise.ch.

We will arrange delivery options based on orders.

 

On the apiary side, life goes on and preparations for winter have already begun. We need to make sure that they are in good shape and that they have enough reserves to spend the winter nice and warm. The two hives of Chessy have made their descent from the alpine and are back with their sisters.
