This traditional style of bee skep was used for managing bees in the early days of beekeeping across much of Europe. Now you can enjoy it for decorative purposes, or to give bees a safe home as part of rewilding efforts in your garden

Good Things:

  • This artisan bee skep is accredited by the World Fair Trade Organisation
  • These products are made by artisans in southern Bangladesh where they provide women and their families with a vital income
  • Handmade using natural seagrass so each one plastic-free!

This bee skep looks beautiful and supports wildlife in your garden. The tightly woven structure and domed shape ensures these skeps are water-resistant and provide valuable insulation for resident bees. 

Site your skep near wildflowers or other pollinating flowers in order to attract bees and give them a valuable food source. The skep should be sheltered and raised from the ground. It can be anchored with tent pegs for extra support. It can be helpful to brace the inside of the skep with twigs and sticks to give the bees a starting structure and material to build their nest around.

    What you get:

    This domed-shape skep is made from seagrass and recycled sari fabric. It has a small entrance on one side for bees to make their way in and out of their home

    Each bee skep measures: 40 x 30 x 30 cm
