Already more than 30 years since the Rucher du Montcalm was born. Sylvie Humbert ("Maya" for the regulars) is at the origin of this project, soon relayed by her daughter.
The apiaries are located in an exceptional natural setting: the valley of Val-de-Sos and Auzat offers these small bees an ecosystem free of pesticides and other phytosanitary products that can harm their balance.
“Maya” and her daughter transhumance the hives according to the desired honey flow, often placing them around groves of high mountain flowers such as Rhododendron and Heather.
The different varieties of honey are 100% from wild flowers from our Ariège mountains at altitudes between 700 and 1800 meters.
Mother nature orchestrates the harvests and varieties of honey. This gives new taste palettes that have won medals many times in various competitions.
Medal-winning honeys at the Paris agricultural competition and regional competitions.
Meet the real passion for beekeeping in the shop or during guided tours.
