WHY BEES ARE IMPORTANT

Before we delve into the unique partnership between Gattertop Drinks and Oakdale Bees, let's take a moment to appreciate the importance of these fascinating creatures. Bees play a crucial role in pollination. Approximately one-third of the food we consume depends on pollinators like bees, making their role invaluable to human survival. These little marvels move from one flower to another, aiding plants in the fertilisation process. The symbiotic relationship between bees and flowers is an exquisite example of nature's balance, where both parties support each other's existence.

At Gattertop Drinks, bees hold a special significance for our orchards. As we cherish the delicate balance of nature, bees play a pivotal role in pollinating our fruit trees to ensure a successful crop of ingredients each year. Without the industrious work of these tiny pollinators, the lush bounty of our orchards and the exceptional quality of our ingredients would not be possible. Bees are not only vital for the ecosystem but also integral to the essence of Gattertop Drinks.

A Sanctuary for the Bees:

Oakdale Bees stands as a beacon of environmental stewardship, producing natural and eco-friendly hive products by hand. Located in four acres of wild meadow fields bordering the picturesque Royal Windsor forest, Oakdale Bees creates a bountiful natural larder for their British Buckfast bees. Elisabeth, the founder of Oakdale Bees, shares Gattertop Drinks' commitment to ethical and sustainable practices, making the partnership an ideal match.

Beeswax Candles: A Sustainable Choice:

In a world dominated by synthetic products, choosing eco-friendly alternatives can have a significant impact on reducing our ecological footprint. Beeswax candles, handcrafted with care by Oakdale Bees, offer a sustainable and planet-friendly alternative to traditional paraffin candles. Here's why beeswax candles are better:

  • Renewable Resource: Beeswax is a natural byproduct of honey production and is continuously replenished by bees in their hives.
  • Non-Toxic and Clean Burning: Unlike paraffin candles that release harmful chemicals when burned, beeswax candles emit no toxins or pollutants, ensuring a cleaner and healthier indoor environment.
  • Longer Burn Time: Beeswax candles burn slower and last longer than traditional candles, making them more cost-effective in the long run.
  • Natural Aroma: The sweet, subtle fragrance of beeswax candles creates a soothing ambiance without the need for artificial scents.

From Bottle to Candlestick: Upcycling with Purpose

Gattertop Drinks, known for our commitment to quality and sustainability, encourages our customers to join the upcycling movement. Instead of discarding empty vodka bottles, we would love for you to transform them into elegant candle holders. Oakdale Bees' hand-rolled beeswax candles are the perfect fit for our bottles, creating unique and eye-catching decorative pieces that will bring a sense of warmth and charm to any space.

The partnership between Gattertop Drinks and Oakdale Bees is more than just a business collaboration; it is a shared vision of a greener and more sustainable future. By upcycling our vodka bottles into candle holders and choosing beeswax candles, customers contribute to reducing waste and supporting the vital work of our tiny pollinators.
