Les ruchers de Saint Joseph
As a small family of beekeepers, we work from father to son amazed by the richness of nature with its tremendous foragers since 1980.
Committed beekeeping in the heart of the Drôme des Collines region
Based in the village of Bren, Les Ruchers de Saint-Joseph embodies respectful, authentic beekeeping. As passionate artisan beekeepers, we have made the demanding choice to manage our hives using organic farming methods.
Anchored in the Drôme des Collines terroir, we work in total harmony with the rhythm of nature, without synthetic chemicals, to guarantee the health of our bees and the purity of our products.
Miels Bio de Crus & Gelée Royale Française
Thanks to our organic method and transhumance, we follow the flowering season to offer you a palette of authentic flavors. Depending on the harvest and the season, you’ll discover the great vintages of our region: from powerful Chestnut honey to delicate Lavender honey, from Lime blossom to Acacia.
Our pride and joy? Our French Royal Jelly, harvested by hand and offered fresh (not frozen). Nobly packaged, it preserves its exceptional nutritional virtues intact.
Apitherapy and Natural Cosmetics
Because we believe in the raw benefits of nature, we’ve developed a range of skincare products based on the treasures of our organic beehives:
Savonnerie Artisanale: Superfatted soaps, like our must-have donkey’s milk & acacia honey soap or our honey soaps (plant-based).
Health & Well-being: Natural formulations like our propolis ointment (75% organic), our nasal spray or our fluoride-free toothpaste.
Hygiène Douce: Organic honey shampoo, hand cream… everything you need for healthy self-care.
A local and sustainable commitment
Choosing Les Ruchers de Saint-Joseph means supporting :
100% French and local production.
A global ecological approach (natural ingredients, careful packaging).
The future of biodiversity: we support the project for a future Insect Museum in Bren to share our passion and raise public awareness.
