Victoria Bartholomew is a beekeeper, homemaker, and mom. She began beekeeping with her Dad north of Saskatoon before marrying her husband, Tim, and moving to Paynton, where they started with just four colonies of bees. For seven years, they lived on a grain farm, keeping bees as a side venture with hopes of one day building it into a full-time apiary.

That dream began to take shape in early 2024 when they moved to the Redberry Hills. Both Victoria and Tim are passionate about producing raw honey, but even more captivated by observing and learning from the bees themselves—their intricacy, design, and harmony in how they live and work.

Victoria also has a deep interest in holistic health and takes great joy in growing and preparing nutrient-dense food for her family. She mills organic wheat for fresh flour, bakes with sourdough, keeps a steady batch of kombucha brewing, and lives by the philosophy that “food is medicine,” choosing whole foods as sources of nourishment and wellness. An avid hunter since the age of 12, Victoria has also taken deer with a bow. She loves the outdoors and enjoys Creation—whether from the seat of a kayak, the back of a horse, or among her bees, where she happily loses track of time.
