Really nice honey, will buy again!Posted on Pippa Harrison-JonesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hands down the BEST honey I have ever had! Olga is such a wonderful and knowledgeable human who has so much passion and love for what she does. I have learnt so much about their bees. The jar of honey I had I could literally taste the flowers! I cannot wait to try more. XPosted on Sarah FarringtonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had an absolutely fantastic time with the lovely Mark & Olga on our Black Dog Honey-bee experience. Hubby & me utterly fascinated and absorbed from beginning to end. Thought we would be just observing, but under Mark's expert supervision who was so patient with us novices, we got to handle the frames and inspect the queens on a lovely balmy Sunday afternoon. We are still 'buzzing' about this unforgettable experience. This was time and money well-spent. Can't recommend highly enough. Sarah & Darren, Aug 2024Posted on issyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark and olga were very helpful with the procurement of the honey I needed. They were very quick in communication and helpful in getting the honey to me.Posted on Krystal AlagaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a fantastic afternoon we had! Mark was extremely knowledgable and we had a great time getting some hands on experience with the bees! We’ve always been intrigued by the idea of bee keeping and this day just added fuel to that fire! Would highly recommend, and thank you both so much for the lovely gifts at the end to top it all off!Posted on Donna EllisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark was recommended to us by the local bee association, when I called them regarding a swarm of bees around our chimney stack, that were getting into our boiler.He was friendly , polite and professional, giving us helpful advice . The swarm moved on naturally but he came to visit, checked the bees had all gone and advised us on the best course of action moving forward. We are very grateful for his expertise, and shall be sourcing the award winning black dog honey to try. Thanks Mark!Posted on Debby SladeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a fabulous day with Mark learning lots about the art of beekeeping, much of which you could only learn from an expert with hand on experience too. I would recommend this day to anyone with either an interest in beekeeping or for those with a serious intent to start their own hives. A full on day that passes really quickly 👍Posted on Ka STrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Booked an experience for my daughter and her wife, Mark and Olga are fantastic the communication we had was second to none, their personal touch and how they went out of their way to make sure I received the birthday card suprise card on time, as was a last minute booking was just so thoughtful. My girls had such a brilliant experience they could not speak more highly of them, their knowledge of not just bee's, nature, flowers, land etc was so informative the girls were so impressed they can't wait till they go again. The certificates, the honey (oh my daz, tastes beautiful). The girls and I highly recommend Black Dog Honey. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED
