We thought we’d give you something to argue about over a cup of tea. 🎃

How many bees are in our haunted hive? And how many striped spiders?

They look annoyingly similar, so take your time. Tap the picture for a closer look, then leave BOTH counts in the comments.

We’ll draw one winner from the correct entries to receive a jar of Plan Bee Pumpkin Spice Honey.

You’re welcome to share the puzzle and see whether your friends agree with you. Sharing isn’t required and doesn’t earn extra entries.

Free entry. UK residents aged 18+. Closes 11.59pm GMT, 31 October 2026. One entry per person across all entry routes. One winner drawn at random from correct entries and contacted within seven days.

A little something for anyone who’s curious about pollen and honeycomb but hasn’t quite known where to start.

Pollen is easy. Sprinkle some over yoghurt, fruit or porridge. It has a floral, slightly earthy flavour and a little crunch.

There are nutrients in it, although the amounts vary. We wouldn’t promise the health benefits you sometimes read about online. The evidence isn’t there yet.

With honeycomb, try a small piece alongside cheese and pear, or on warm toast. And you can eat the wax too! It’s chewy, so that part might take a bit of getting used to.

Anyone already a fan? How do you have yours?

Please note: bee pollen can cause serious allergic reactions. Avoid it if you have a pollen allergy. Honey and honeycomb aren’t suitable for babies under one.

Jodie's been out talking bees again! 🐝

This time she visited the North of Tyne and Gateshead Diabetic Eye Screening Programme team at their eye screening centre.

They spent some time exploring why bees are important and what having a hive at work could involve. There was a practical side to the visit too, with beeswax on the table and everyone getting stuck in.

Lovely to see these photos from the session. Thank you to the team for welcoming us.

Fancy something like this for your colleagues? You can reach us at [email protected]. We’d love to hear from you.

If you’re sorting the Halloween sweets this week, remember to put something in the cupboard for yourself. 🎃🍯

Our Chilli Hot Honey and Pumpkin Spice Honey would be very happy to volunteer.

Try Chilli Hot Honey drizzled over pizza for a cosy film night, or Pumpkin Spice Honey over warm baked apples for an easy autumn pudding.

Nothing complicated. Just something lovely to eat once the costumes are off, the doorbell has stopped and you’ve finally found the remote.

Which sounds more like your kind of treat?

Happy National Honey Day! 🍯

Some jars barely make it into the cupboard before they’re opened. Others are saved for a slow Sunday breakfast, brought out with a cheeseboard or wrapped up for someone who loves good food.

However you enjoy yours, today is a lovely excuse to celebrate honey and the bees and beekeepers behind it.

We’re grateful to everyone who buys Plan Bee honey, sponsors a hive or joins us to discover more about beekeeping. You give us plenty of reasons to enjoy what we do.

A very special honey delivery for Acorn Court Care Home . 🍯

Beautifully jarred, individually labelled and ready to enjoy, their honey is a lovely way to celebrate their hive sponsorship with Plan Bee.

There’s something rather satisfying about seeing the finished jars together. A partnership with a story behind it, and now something sweet to put on the table.

Thank you, Acorn Court, for being part of the journey. We hope opening the first jar is every bit as enjoyable as receiving the delivery.

Curious about sponsoring a hive? Send us a message. We’d love to tell you more.

Just two days until National Honey Day on Wednesday 21 October. 🍯

If the honey jar in your cupboard is looking a little empty, consider this a timely nudge.

Explore Plan Bee’s British Blossom, Borage and Sunflower honeys. Choose a jar for breakfasts at home, a little thank-you for someone who loves their food, or our British honey trio for a tasting together.

Put out a few spoons and see which everyone reaches for again. There may be some very important second tastings.

What have you always wanted to ask a beekeeper? 🐝

Perhaps you’re curious about life inside a hive, how honey is harvested, or what all that equipment is for.

Perhaps you love honey but would prefer the bees to keep a respectful distance. Fair enough - there’s still plenty to talk about!

At Plan Bee, our engagement activities include beekeeper-led sessions, honey tasting and honey jarring, offering different ways to explore the subject.

For now, we’re handing the conversation over to you: what would your first question be?

15/10/2026

A question for the honey lovers: runny or set? 🍯

Honey can naturally crystallise as glucose forms crystals, changing its texture. Some varieties set more readily than others.

Runny is lovely for a drizzle. Set is rather handy when your toast has holes in it.

Which gets your vote?

14/10/2026

Have you ever tried two honeys side by side?

The nectar bees collect influences their flavour, so there’s more to explore than sweetness alone.

National Honey Day is next Wednesday, 21 October - a lovely excuse to get to know the honey in your cupboard.

Which variety would you recommend to someone who always buys the same jar? 🍯
