About Jennen Bee Farm
In the heart of the North Bruce Peninsula, master beekeeper Geoffrey Jennen has been caring for bees for over 30 years. Taught by his mentor and father, Walter Jennen, Geoffrey learned the art and science of beekeeping from an early age, a legacy built on knowledge, patience, and deep respect for the natural world.
The North Bruce Peninsula is a unique region, with rugged limestone shores, emerald forests, and meadows bursting with wildflowers. This diverse landscape offers our bees an abundance of nectar sources found nowhere else in the world. From spring’s first blossoms to late-summer blooms, each season’s honey production reflects the distinct character of the Peninsula’s flora. With a shorter beekeeping season here, every drop of Bruce Peninsula raw honey is especially precious.
Geoffrey is more than a beekeeper; he is also a skilled bee breeder, utilizing various bee genetics to raise strong, resilient colonies that thrive in the North Bruce climate. Through his new initiative Project Healthy Bees, he’s dedicated to improving colony health, advancing sustainable practices, and helping fellow beekeepers in the area learn more about bee biology, hive management, and breeding techniques.
At Jennen Bee Farm, it’s not just about honey...it’s about advancing the craft, supporting the beekeeping community, and preserving the harmony between bees and the beautiful land they call home, along with providing quality beekeeping kits for aspiring beekeepers.
