Palakkad Beekeepers Producer Company Limited

Palakkad Beekeepers Producer Company Limited is located at Kinakuzhiyil (H) in Kalladi, right in the Palakkad district. If you know Palakkad, you know it gets incredibly hot here, especially when the winds blow through the gap in the mountains. We spend most of our time dealing with bees and honey, which is a lot more work than most people think. It's not just about the honey; it's about keeping the hives healthy and making sure the bees are doing okay in this heat. Our office is basically just a house address where we all meet up to talk about the latest batches or any problems the members are having with their colonies. There are a lot of us involved, all local beekeepers who have been doing this for years in our own backyards. We decided to put this company together so we could handle things a bit better as a group. Sometimes the bees are grumpy and we get stung, and sometimes the weather just doesn't cooperate, but that's just the way it is with this kind of work. We aren't trying to be some big corporate entity; we are just a bunch of people from around Kalladi who like working with bees. It's messy work and your hands are always sticky, but it keeps the community going. We don't have any fancy marketing people, just us and the bees.
