Oh honey! This delicious honey is well known across the states. Locust honey, also known as acacia honey, is delicately flavored and very light in color. It’s known for its high antioxidant content and antimicrobial properties.

Storage Tips: Honey is best stored at temperatures above 77°F to avoid crystallization. The lower the temp, the faster the honey will crystallize.
Crystallization: If it's the real deal raw honey (never heated or altered in any way), it will eventually turn solid and crystallize. If crystallized honey is left for too long, it will ferment. There's nothing you can do to prevent this.
How to De-Crystallize Honey: Take a large bowl, fill it with warm water, and let your honey sit in it until the crystals melt away. Just make sure to heat the honey to no more than 104F to maintain all the beneficial microbiology.
Due to its mild flavor, locust honey pairs well with a variety of foods, including fresh cheeses like: raw goat mist O' blue cheese, raw goat kidchego cheese, yogurt, fruit, and ice cream.
- Sweetness: It's known for its mild and delicate sweetness, not as intensely sweet as some other honey varieties.
- Floral Notes: It has a distinct floral aroma and flavor, reflecting the nectar source from the black locust tree.
- Vanilla Undertones: Many describe it as having subtle hints of vanilla, adding to its complexity.
- Other Notes: Some people also perceive notes of fruity, hay, marmalade, or even citrus flavors.
Our bees are always given access to blooming flowers to gather nectar from. Bees are efficient and will fly the shortest distance to gather food. We make sure that our bees have plenty of chemical-free flowers to forage from, so we don't get any chemicals or GMO pollen in the honey.
If they are wintering over, the bees are given their own honey to feed on. They are NEVER fed high fructose corn syrup.
When the honey is harvested, a warm knife is used to cap the hive frames. This removes the thin layer of beeswax so the honey can be extracted.
Then, the frames are spun really fast to extract the honey without heat.
The honey goes through a thick mesh filter. This removes any bee parts of big particles from the honey. It leaves you with raw honey with pollen and all the good stuff included!
No, it has not. Our beekeeper is confident that his bees have enough chemical-free area to forage from and doesn't need verification.
Is the honey really pure and raw?
Yes, absolutely! We don't add anything to the honey. It's pure. And we never heat it. In fact, our beekeeper freezes the honey that he won't bottle right away to keep it in its purest condition (other bee farmers keep their "raw" honey warm).
OUR MISSION is to be an amazing and reliable source for farm direct, nutrient dense food.
OUR VISION is to end sickness by enhancing health, nutrition, and happiness.
OUR PURPOSE is to inspire a generation of healthy children and reduce healthcare costs.
