Established and made available by the Lublin County – the Beekeeping Incubator is the first place in the Lublin region where beekeepers, using a well-equipped technological line, can process honey of their own production. The facility is located in Pszczela Wola (Bee Will, Poland), on the premises of the Apiculture Technical College, which is a center of education and beekeeping practice well-known in Poland and Europe. The incubator was created thanks to financial support under the EU Rural Development Program for 2014-2020.
It is a modern education and service center that creates and implements innovative scientific and technical solutions in the field of beekeeping. The Beekeeping Incubator enables farmers and beekeepers to make and sell their own honey-based products without having to invest in their own infrastructure.
This is an excellent solution for the needs of beginner beekeepers, for whom one of the main obstacles is the investment in the appropriate equipment, necessary in honey processing. Thanks to the high level of hygiene guaranteed, the product manufactured in the incubator complies with all health and safety requirements and thus is ready for sale.
Incubator’s customers are able to use the modern infrastructure and equipment of the Incubator, for a fixed, non-profit price based on the cost of utilities. Users will process food on their own, using the Incubator’s space and equipment. Before start, they will be trained in the use of the shared devices by our professional supervising the proper functioning of the facility. The incubator has all the necessary approvals and permits from relevant authorities, which ensure that the final product is safe in terms of sanitation and hygiene.
The incubator is also a place where you can take advantage of consultancy in the field of honey processing technology and beekeeping. Moreover, it will be an area of meetings and exchange of experience between beekeepers and manufacturers. The incubator’s offer is addressed to professionals and amateurs in the area of bee products from all over the globe. Since the beginning, the Beekeeping Incubator in Bee Will, Poland has met with great interest among honey manufacturers both at home and abroad. Thanks to this, it influences the creation of the future of beekeeping and is one of the elements building the influential brand of the Lublin County and the Lublin Province.
