Like each of our 23+ Local Hive Honey varietals, Local Hive Colorado is raw, unfiltered, and made by bees and beekeepers on their own home turf. And in this case, that turf just happens to be right in our backyard — from the eastern plains to the western slopes and the Rocky Mountains — where Loc...

    For more than 100 years, we've partnered with beekeepers all across the United States to source Local Hive Honey. While other honey companies filter and homogenize their honey, we're proud to bottle it raw & unfiltered, with all those local 'imperfections' intact. This means each of our ...

When we launched Organic Hive in 2024, we took things a step further. We could've just launched a better-tasting organic honey, sourced from a remote corner of Brazil and called it a day.

The USDA famously grades beef – Prime, Choice, Select — but did you know they grade honey, too? And while it's good to know that your honey has been graded, it can be misleading: just because honey says "U.S. Grade A", that doesn't mean it's from the U.S. U.S. Grade A ≠ Made in USA Let's compare ...

When we say our honey is raw & unfiltered, here’s what that means—and why it matters. What “Unfiltered Honey” Means Filtered honey has been heavily strained to remove natural particles like pollen and beeswax. Local Hive Honey keeps those intact. Each of our honeys is cloudier, thicker, and p...

The honey aisle has a bit of a 'word salad' problem. With dozens of different honeys side-by-side, all with different colors, labels, claims, and sources, it can be tough to tell what you're buying. Raw, pure, organic, unfiltered...what’s the difference? What's it all mean? Aren't they all just h...

Organic honey isn’t just about what’s in the bottle—it’s also about where it comes from. Organic Hive Honey is harvested in rural Brazil, where honeybees can roam for miles through the rich, biodiverse region without ever encountering pesticides or even managed farmland. If you're looking for hig...

“Organic” is one of those words that sounds simple but gets tricky fast—especially with honey. Here’s why Organic Hive Honey is truly unique. Why U.S. Honey Can’t Be Certified Organic Bees fly wherever they like, which makes it nearly impossible for U.S. beekeepers to guarantee their hives only ...

“Pure honey” is one of the most misused phrases in the grocery aisle. So what does it actually mean? Pure vs. Raw vs. Processed Pure honey should contain only one ingredient: honey. But “pure” doesn’t necessarily mean raw or unfiltered. You may have heard: honey is one of the most-faked items on ...

Ask five people about honey and weight, and you’ll get ten different answers. So let’s clear it up: honey won’t magically make you thin, but it won’t automatically make you gain weight either.
