🐝 Calling local cafés! ☕🍯

I'm working on something new for Myst~Tree Honey and I'm looking for a local independent café that might fancy getting involved!

I'm keeping the new product under wraps for now, but it's something that I think would fit rather nicely into a café.

Ideally, I'd love to find somewhere I can send customers to try it before they buy it, while giving the café something a little different to offer its customers.

In return, I'm happy to put together a special introductory deal and promote the café through Myst~Tree's social media when we launch.

I'm particularly interested in cafés around Rainford, St Helens and the surrounding areas.

If you run a café, or know somebody who does, give me a message!

I promise it's not another variety of hot honey. I've caused enough trouble with those already. 😂

If youre wondering "why do I need honey" here's my very special recipe to defeat any cold and flu.... it isn't a medicine.... but you'll definitely not care about any sniffles after you've drank it🙂

Autumn deals are live 🍯🍂

As discussed in my autumn grumble video, autumn is here, everything is going brown, the weather is poo, and I can’t play with my bees properly anymore.

So, naturally, I’ve dealt with this by making honey deals.
Starting with the biggest saving: 25% off the Borage & Heather Honey Duo.

Borage & Heather Honey Duo
£13.50, saving £4.50, 25% off
Usually £18 bought separately. Two 227g jars, pairing lighter Borage honey with richer Heather honey. A lovely way to try two very different honeys side by side.

Large Rainford Honey & Dipper
£14, saving £2.50, about 15% off
A 454g jar of Rainford honey with a wooden dipper tied on with twine. Basically, you get the dipper included for around the usual price of the jar.

Five Mini Rainford Honeys
£15, saving £2.50, about 14% off
Usually £17.50 bought separately. Five 56g jars of Rainford honey. Handy for little gifts, teachers, neighbours, stocking fillers, wedding favours, or keeping in the cupboard for tiny honey emergencies.

Honey & Candle Gift Box
£13, saving £2, about 13% off
A 227g jar of Rainford honey, a wooden dipper, and a small skep candle, wrapped up as a cosy little autumn gift.

These are limited offers, partly because they’re seasonal, and partly because I don’t want to wake up to my accountant standing at the bottom of my bed holding a baseball bat.

First come, first served.

Autumn is here and I am not ready 🍂

Everything is dying back, the weather is poo, and I can’t even go and play with my bees properly anymore.

So, to cheer myself up, I’ve decided to do a few limited autumn deals.

The next post will show what’s on sale, what’s included, and where to get them.

They will be limited though, partly because they’re seasonal, and partly because I don’t want to wake up to my accountant standing at the bottom of my bed holding a baseball bat.

Small autumn treats incoming.

Last proper bee visit of the year, probably 🐝

Today is probably the last proper visit to the bees until next year.

They’ve been treated for varroa, they’re weighing in with the right amount of stores, the queens are looking healthy, and the boxes are full of bees.

At this point, there isn’t much more I can do.

I might need to give them some fondant in winter if they feel light, but apart from that, it’s now mostly over to them.

It’s always a strange and slightly sad point in the season.

After months of inspections, honey pulls, queen problems, feeding, lifting, sweating, panicking, learning years of experience mean nothing sometimes, and generally annoying bees for their own good, suddenly you have to step back and leave them to it.

Apparently I don’t really know what to do with myself when I can’t get elbows deep in boxes of stinging insects.

But they’re going into winter strong, and hopefully next spring they’ll come roaring back, ready to cause chaos all over again.

Sleep well, little idiots.

See you next year.

Quick reminder that I sell honey soaps 🍯🧼

As the weather gets colder and hands start turning into dry little nubs, it feels like a good time to remind people that I do sell Myst~Tree Honey Soap.

These soaps still contain their natural glycerin, unlike many mass-produced soaps where it can be removed during processing.

Glycerin helps attract moisture, which is one of the reasons these bars feel lovely on rough, dry hands.

They’re simple, useful, smell lovely, and make a nice little treat for yourself or a small gift for someone else.

Basically, less sad winter skin.

Here’s the linkie:

Wasps are not the enemy… but they are testing me 🐝

I recently made a video saying wasps aren’t the villains people think they are, and I do stand by that.

They are important predators, they help control other insects, and they have their place in the environment.

However.

They can still be bloody annoying.

These ones were trying to chew their way into one of my nucs to get to the sugar syrup inside...

I won’t kill these ones because they’re queens, and they are still important for next year’s wasp populations and the wider environment.

But I am allowed to be mildly offended by their behaviour.

So yes, wasps are useful.
Yes, they matter.
Yes, they deserve a bit more respect than they usually get.

But also…

Buzz off, you stripey little menaces.

Langwood Farm Shop is fully restocked 🍯🐝

Fresh 2026 Myst~Tree Rainford Honey has now been delivered to Langwood Farm Shop.

They’re now fully stocked with both medium jars and large jars, so if you’re nearby and need your honey fix, you’re sorted.

It’s always brilliant seeing local shops supporting local producers, and every jar bought from places like Langwood helps keep small businesses ticking along.

You’re not just buying honey. You’re supporting a local farm shop, local beekeeping, local food, and the slightly sticky chaos that keeps Myst~Tree going.

Fresh local honey is back on the shelves.

Support local where you can. It really does make a difference.

Just minding my own business when Facebook tells me it’s limiting my stomach bug post because it lacks a video or picture.

Look, Meta…

No one wants to see what was happening to me for those few horrible days.

Trust me. The lack of visual content was a kindness... nay, a public service...

Anyway, thankfully I’m feeling much better now, so orders will be back on track again.

Thank you for being patient while my stomach briefly attempted to leave the business.

Oddly satisfying honey content 🍯🐝

There are few things more satisfying than draining the honey out of the brush uncapper.

Just look at it.

Golden, delicious, slowly pouring out after being recovered from all the wax cappings.

Best of all, because it’s honey I’ve managed to get back out of the wax, my wrinkled little brain has decided this counts as free honey.

Is that how business maths works?

Absolutely not.

Will I continue to believe it anyway?

Yes.

No further questions.
