5 x honey from Zoetermeerse beekeepers

taketonews

In Zoetermeer, a number of local beekeepers are at work with their own beehives spread across the city. The honey bees fly out to green places to drink their fill of sweet nectar. The beekeepers use these bees to make pots of gold: often hand-cranked honey of Zoetermeer origin. See below where you can go for real Zoetermeer honey.

Honey from the Zoetermeer region
