The history and importance of beekeeping in Val-de-Marne
An ancient heritage
Beekeeping is an ancient practice dating back thousands of years. In Val-de-Marne, this tradition has been passed down from generation to generation. Traditional straw hives have evolved into modern wooden ones, but the essence of beekeeping remains the same: a symbiotic relationship between man and bee, where each benefits from the other.
Biodiversity in Val-de-Marne
The Val-de-Marne, with its many parks, forests and green spaces, offers an ideal environment for beekeeping. The region's floral diversity enables bees to forage on a wide variety of flowers, producing honeys with rich and varied flavors. Bees also play a crucial role in plant pollination, contributing to the biodiversity and health of local ecosystems.
Our honeys: a range of flavours and benefits
Polyfloral honeys
Polyfloral honeys, or all-flower honeys, are made from the pollination of different varieties of flowers. This floral diversity gives polyfloral honeys a unique richness of flavor, with each jar reflecting the season and the flowers available at that time. Val-de-Marne polyfloral honeys offer a palette of flavors ranging from delicate floral notes to more robust, woody aromas.
Monofloral honeys
Unlike polyfloral honeys, monofloral honeys come mainly from the nectar of a single flower variety. This specificity produces honeys with very distinct taste and aroma characteristics. Our range of monofloral honeys includes lavender, acacia, chestnut and many others. Each monofloral honey is an invitation to discover the very essence of the flower from which it comes.
Exceptional honeys
Our exceptional honeys are the result of special conditions and unique beekeeping know-how. These rare and precious honeys are produced in limited quantities, often in specific environments where bees can forage on particular flowers. Examples include fir honey, thyme honey and buckwheat honey. Each jar of exceptional honey is a real delicacy, a golden treasure with multiple health benefits.
Artisanal confectionery: an explosion of sweet flavours
Honey sweets
Honey sweets are a delicious way to enjoy the health benefits of honey and indulge yourself at the same time. Our sweets are handcrafted with natural ingredients and no artificial additives. They offer a melt-in-the-mouth texture and intense flavors that will delight gourmets of all ages.
Nougats and fruit jellies
Nougat and fruit jellies are classics of French confectionery. By adding natural honey to these traditional recipes, we create sweets that are even tastier and more beneficial. Honey nougat, with its crunchy almonds and soft texture, is a treat for the taste buds. As for fruit jellies, they offer an explosion of fruity flavors, sublimated by the sweetness of honey.
Flavored honeys
For lovers of new taste experiences, we offer flavored honeys. These honeys are infused with natural ingredients such as spices, citrus fruits or aromatic herbs. The result is a palette of innovative and surprising flavors, perfect for desserts, hot drinks or simply to enjoy with a spoon.

Respectful beekeeping practices
Our Val-de-Marne beekeepers are committed to beekeeping practices that respect the environment and bees. We favor natural methods and avoid the use of chemical products. Our hives are set up in areas rich in biodiversity, ensuring a varied and healthy diet for our bees.
