Our Story
How The Noble Bee came to be
It was in 2014, that the seed was sown, laying the foundation for what would blossom into The Noble Bee.
From those humble beginnings, we've grown into an award-winning producer of local honey in The New Forest.

How it all bee-gan
While the business officially took flight in 2020, Simon had been nurturing its roots since his early days of beekeeping as a hobby. Simon's journey into beekeeping started when he stumbled upon a fallen beech tree in a nearby woodland following a storm in January 2014. Within the hollow of that tree resided a thriving wild colony of bees, sparking the beginning of his remarkable journey.
From this serendipitous encounter, the story of The Noble Bee unfolded and although Simon started beekeeping in 2014, he also has fond childhood memories of helping harvest the honey from his Dads bees. You could say it was written in the stars, or simply; ‘meant to bee’
