In the Lüneburg Heath, there are many of these bee houses in which the beekeepers put their baskets. Here is a very nice old apiary located directly on the Heidschnuckenweg.

Heather honey is a very special honey specialty. This is partly due to its almost jelly-like consistency, the red-brownish color and its intense taste. The bees collect the nectar of the common heather during the heather bloom in late summer. The bees fill the honeycomb of their beehive with the nectar. For the Heath beekeepers, the laborious work of honey harvesting then begins. Heather honey is not easy to harvest due to its jelly-like consistency, which is due to certain proteins in honey. The beekeepers: inside cannot hurl the honey out of the honeycombs as easily as normal honey, because it is too tough. Therefore, heather honey is often offered in honeycomb pieces. Alternatively, the beekeepers first heat the honey inside the honeycomb to 25 degrees and then pierce the honeycomb with a roller. This process temporarily makes the heather honey more fluid and can then be thrown out. Another special feature of heather honey are the keeping conditions for the bees: Some heather beekeepers: inside they still keep their bees traditionally in woven beehives. Others move as hiking beekeepers with their bee colonies through the extensive heathland.
