What makes natural beekeeping different?

  • The beekeepers support bees to live as naturally as possible
  • We support other pollinators in the areas we work in by planting flowers & maintaining sustainable environments
  • The bees are free to build natural comb instead of wax foundations
  • The bees’ winter honey supply is not robbed and replaced by sugar water
  • There is no drone management
  • No queen extruders are used and queens are not cut
  • The bees are free to give birth naturally or in other words: to swarm
  • The bees will not be treated with chemical products or acids
  • We work with natural hives, using only natural materials

We have or maintain different natural beehives in different locations in Amsterdam. They are placed on rooftops, city parks, and inner gardens.

Currently, we have colonies in:
