    Hi all, I was interested in buying bee bread for my own consumption. I was wondering if anyone around the Dublin area sells any bee bread ?

    "Bee bread" is known as pollen by most beekeepers. Honey and wax are the usual products of bees in Ireland - I don't know of any beekeepers who produce pollen or propolis although it's common in other countries. Maybe it's because of the damp weather - the pollen would probably get wet in the trap and go mouldy.

    Have you tried your local "health" food shop?

    when bee bread (pollen) is dried , it loses 75% of its value.

    Where do I stop or start. Google it. The internet is full of how pollen should be processed and stored
