We love to spread it to add sweetness to breakfast or to slip it into our tea to make it sweeter; it must be said that honey has everything to please those with a sweet tooth. What about its production in the Tarn Valley?



Push open the doors of a honey house to meet passionate beekeepers
Puycelsi or Lagrave, the surroundings of Gaillac have thousands of beehives producing pure and exceptional honeys. The Tarn has no shortage of beekeepers ready to show you their daily lives and their world around their countless bees.
From visiting a honey house to working with a honey bee expert, learn which flowers in the region are the most pollinated while discovering the breeding of swarms without which the flora would lose so much of its beauty.
In the heart of the forest, the life of the hive follows its course. Go see what is happening there with the beekeeper by putting on a suit to be fully protected. Do you know how to distinguish the Queen? Listen to the advice and watch for her by observing the dance of the bees as close as possible to you and without the slightest risk of stinging!
