Did you know there’s much more to Ivy Cottage Bees than honey?
Of course, we LOVE our honey, candles and all things bees… but sharing our knowledge, supporting our community and helping people connect with nature is a huge part of what we do too.
School visits & educational talks
We offer fun, engaging and curriculum-linked sessions for primary schools, bringing the fascinating world of honeybees, pollinators, habitats and the environment to life.
Home education sessions
Learning doesn’t have to happen in a classroom! Our home education sessions can include apiary visits, beeswax crafts and curriculum-linked learning covering subjects such as pollination, habitats, food chains, seasonal changes and sustainability.
SEND & sensory-friendly learning
Our calm, hands-on approach can work particularly well for children who prefer a more relaxed, sensory-friendly and low-pressure environment, with activities adapted to different ages, abilities and learning styles.
Wellbeing & mental health sessions
There’s something incredibly calming about spending time in nature. We offer bee-led, nature-based wellbeing experiences for charities and community organisations, providing an opportunity to slow down, connect with nature and enjoy the fascinating world of bees.
Charity & community visits
We also work with charities and community groups, helping more people experience the benefits of nature, learning and time outdoors.
Corporate & team-building experiences
From getting suited up and meeting the bees to honey tasting, candle rolling and team activities, we can create memorable experiences for businesses too.
Whether you’re a teacher, home-educating family, charity, community organisation or business, we’d love to hear from you and see how we can create something that works for your group.
Because at Ivy Cottage Bees, it isn’t just about what’s inside the honey jar.
