Hawthorn & Bee is a small independent shop selling eco friendly household cleaning products, personal care items and toiletries, vegan food, and lots more.
Hawthorn and Bee opened in January 2020 and relocated to their current shop in the High Street, Dereham in the summer of 2022. Owner Helen has always had an interest in environmental issues, buying eco friendly and sustainable products as much as possible and felt that opening a shop to allow other people to do the same as easily as possible was a great idea.
Hawthorn & Bee stocks a range of refill liquid household and personal care products, dried foods, store cupboard essentials, vegan food, ready meals, pet and wild animal food and accessories, eco friendly candles and wax melts.
