We are Nicole and Al, a couple of fun-loving Canadians who have found a love of bees and beekeeping and a love for making beautiful things out of natural materials. What started out as hobbies, born out of curiosity, has grown quickly into a passion for creation and supporting our environment.
Our bees are in small apiaries at the moment and we are scouting other locations to offer more variety.
