Raw & unfiltered honey will eventually turn solid – that’s a simple fact of life. But that doesn’t mean your bottle’s days are numbered. Crystallized honey is usually light yellow or white, with a consistency somewhere between that of peanut butter and granite, depending on how long it’s been...

June 20–26th is Pollinator Week, a time for everyone everywhere to celebrate the species who pollinate flowers of all kinds. Why, you might ask, is a honey company so gung-ho about pollinators? Well, we don’t just love bees for honey. They’re also nature’s most important pollinator. There are tho...

Growing up, most of us didn’t think twice about bees unless we were unfortunate enough to get stung. So you’d be forgiven for thinking, “Bees are those little yellow-and-black-striped guys who sting and make honey.” You’d be forgiven, but you’d be wrong on pretty much all counts: Bees come in a ...

We’re big fans of honey butter around here. We love it almost as much as we love raw & unfiltered honey, and that means we put it on just about everything: bagels, biscuits, toast, and so much more. We’ve made Whipped Honey Butter before, but today’s recipe has a twist: plenty of raspberries ...

Right off the bat, let us say this: the best thing about local honey is that each one naturally has a unique flavor because of the mix of pollens and nectars inside. If a bee in Florida pollinates an orange blossom, the honey it makes will taste a bit like oranges. We don’t have to add flavorings...
