Description
Our family’s legacy in beekeeping traces back to 1963 when our patriarch, Stelios Stathakis, initiated our journey by acquiring our first beehives, marking the onset of a fruitful endeavor. Over the years, fueled by an unwavering dedication and a profound love for beekeeping, our familial enterprise seamlessly transitioned across generations, upholding the tradition with the same fervor and conscientiousness. Nestled amidst the unique topography of our island home, we count ourselves immensely privileged.
