Asian Honey Bees (ApisCerana) build small hives in crevices of trees and on termite mounds. These hives are rich in golden sweet honey and have fine floral undertones. Wild Cerena honey occurs in limited quantities and precious as it is of great value in practices of Ayurveda. Wholesomeness from Kodai forests is now bottled in a jar, just for you.

Hoopoe on a Hill runs out of a small home in a village near Kodaikanal. We are a group of four women who work together to bring wild honey gathered by Adivasi communities of the Palani Hills in Tamil Nadu to you. In 2015, we visited villages in the Palani Hills to understand the Adivasis who live in and take care of our forests. As we worked on documenting their histories for a project funded by INTACH Delhi, we discovered a rich and wonderful aspect of traditional hunter-gatherer life in this region – the practice of gathering honey.
