Welcome to the home of Actual Honey!

The Honey
Actual Honey is exactly as the label says. It is straight from the hive to the jar, made with love and care by the bees for you to enjoy. You won’t find any adulteration in a jar with this label on.

The Bees
Actual Honey is made by two hives of bees situated in the beautiful North Yorkshire village of Marton-le-Moor.
