The Beekeeper

Bzzzzzz! Is there such a thing as a King Bee? And why are those honey bees hanging off each other in a long chain?! Gwen got to work on one of the hottest days of the year, interviewing a Beekeeper about what she does all day at work.

Check out the video of Gwen's Beekeeping adventure on YouTube. You can see for yourself, take a look at the hives, spot the Queen Bee pottering about and laying her eggs! And watch how the honey is spun off the 'supers'.

The hives that Gwen visited belong to the Beekeeper herself and also Orwells, a super tasty restaurant not far from the hives. You can check out their Instagram or Facebook to see what they've been up to during the lockdown.

You can buy the delicious Henley Honey from them, or from Gabriel Machin butchers and if you go to our Instagram or Facebook before the end of July 2020 you can try and win a jar of the honey that Jemima extracted that day and we will post it to you!

I am a 7yr old. My name is Gwen Rose. I wanted to do this podcast so all the girls, boys and me could learn about what adults do all day. Visit our website for past episodes and to find out what's coming soon: https://gwengetstowork.com/
