Beekeepers

Inspired by the land, guided by respect for it

Nurturing biodiversity

Men and women, with a strong bond to the land where they live and a shared passion for bees, the products they give us and nature. They’ve all made a pledge and accepted rules that protect the bees and lay down the best methods for harvesting honey, pollen, royal jelly and propolis. Mielizia beekeepers work in harmony with their bees from Piedmont to Sicily, caring for them and creating just the right conditions to enable them to thrive.

The honey supply chain

Mielizia honeys are the tangible result of the CONAPI “honey supply chain” model, which runs from selection of the areas of origin to production in the apiary, followed by packaging and marketing and sale of the end product.
