Welcome to Thymeli
Thymeli from Kopanezos family,
represents the continuation of perhaps the most traditional family, which deals with nomadic beekeeping in Kalymnos since 1950.
Starting from the beginning of the century, in Myrties of Kalymnos, from our ancestors, Magriplis Nikolaos and Irene, the art of beekeeping was passed on to our father and mother, Antonis Kopanezos and Magripli Maria.
Since then, based in Vathi of Kalymnos and depending on the season, our family moves the hives throughout Kalymnos and Kos, with the sole criterion being the maintenance, development, and safety of the bee colonies.
For the past 17 years, the beekeeping tradition of the Kopanezou family has been continued by Drosos and Antonis.
Antonis is the 4th generation beekeeper in our family.
