Balinski Beekeeping House is specialising in the production of organic bee products from over 700 bee colonies. The apiaries are located near the village of Totleben, Pleven region. They are located in an area with rich honey-bearing vegetation. Bee products are extracted in a modern beekeeping house with separate rooms for extraction and storage of bee products.
“Our goal over the years has always been the same – to work for your health by creating pure bee products, free of impurities and additives.
The story of how we started keeping bees is a long and interesting one. Our family name alone speaks of beekeeping, woven into our lives from the deepest past.
During the Ottoman rule, the Bulgarians who practised beekeeping were called ‘balini’ by the Ottomans, which translates as ‘medars’. Currently, our family maintains the tradition of creating real honey.
The most famous beekeeper of the family is Rumen Balinski – known to all Bulgarian beekeepers as the inspirer and organizer of the largest Bulgarian beekeeping exhibition “Beekeeping Pleven”. Next to him stand his wife Petya and two sons Dragomir and Theodore. Their wives – Alexandra and Sarah and children their Daniel, Jana and Phillip and Eli and Boris respectively – follow.”
