L’APEritiva apicoltura nomade di Maffeo Cristian

Cristian’s workshop is located in a courtyard house in the historic center of a hill town with just over a thousand inhabitants. It is a landscape and community oriented company, which consciously uses the resources of the territory and relies on good neighborly relationships and word of mouth for the distribution of its products. Cristian produces wildflower, acacia, chestnut and rhododendron honey in quantities and availability that vary depending on the year. His bees also give propolis, royal jelly and pollen in small quantities. Over the years, thecompany has developed some products based on honey such as cream spread with hazelnuts and cocoa or Revelchion grappa flavored with a blend of honeys. Cristian’s honey, which has ICEA organic certification, is produced by moving the hives from one place to another in the Elvo valley between Camburzano, Netro, Zubiena, Mongrando and OcchieppoInferiore in non-urbanized areas to follow the seasonal blooms, hence the idea of nomadic beekeeping that adapts to the territory and respects its peculiarities. Promoting and recognizing the peculiarity and the healthiness of our territory L’Aperitiva is certified organicand adheres to the brand “Miele Biellese”. The sale takes place directly in the laboratory of honey extraction in Camburzano or through a small local network of stores, or in fairs and markets in the area.It is possible to organize, by reservation, guided tours for small groups to the apiary of Camburzano.
