HayfeGUARD®. are hands on professional beekeepers since 1924. They have their farm base in Surrey where they keep beehives, and others in and around the Countryside. They also have beehives in London and other city areas. This means HayfeGUARD®. have the largest selection of mono floral (single nectar) honeys in the country.

Hayfeguard was developed over thirty years ago, repackaged and rebranded, but the same basic principals are still applied today.
