The bee’s knees
THE BUZZ AROUND LOCAL HONEY continues to grow. The global Relais & Châteaux group is setting up hives at many of its hotels to help biodiversity, and has teamed up with culinary magicians Bompas & Parr to hold a special art installation in London’s Soho on 6-8 October. At The Joy of Bees, visitors can try rare types of honey, watch bees busy themselves in an observation hive, and take in honeycomb-inspired art, with all proceeds from tickets going to the British Beekeepers Association (£9; bompasandparr.com).
