Raw Unfiltered Honey

Raw simply means unprocessed.  Raw honey is extracted from the hive, gently strained to remove larger particles, and bottled.  No heating or heavy filtration.

Unlike regular honey, raw unfiltered honey hasn’t undergone pasteurization and filtration processes that can destroy beneficial nutrients. It tends to have a more robust flavor and a creamier texture compared to regular honey.

Store your raw unfiltered honey in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Over time, it may crystallize, but this is a natural process and doesn’t affect the quality of the honey.

You can use raw unfiltered honey in the same ways you would use regular honey. It’s great for sweetening beverages, drizzling over yogurt or pancakes, baking, and even as a natural skin care ingredient.

Crystallization is a natural process that occurs when the glucose in honey precipitates into solid crystals. It doesn’t affect the quality or safety of the honey, and it can be easily returned to a liquid state by gently warming.

Due to the process of turning nectar into honey by insects (honeybees), there’s no way to be 100% sure that the bees have not encountered some type of pesticide.  Therefore, we cannot claim organic honey.  However, there are no agricultural growing operations in our area, therefore, there is minimal glyphosate being applied to crops and nectar/pollen sources.

We feed our honeybees sugar syrup (sugar mixed with water) in winter and early spring.  This is to give the honeybees a much-needed boost when there is no nectar available. Feeding is halted once nectar flows and honey is being produced!

There are many simple ways to test the quality of your honey.

If honey stays in an airtight sealed jar, honey should store indefinitely.  However, it’s important to check to see if any impurities have developed. Signs of mold or strange smell probably means the honey was compromised and should be thrown out.

Honey should be kept above 75 degrees F to prevent crystallization. We recommend keeping honey on a counter near the stove in the kitchen. Refrain from storing it in the back of a cabinet near an exterior wall that might get cold in winter.

Honey will change color/taste/consistency based on the time of year it was harvested.  This is due to the different pollen and nectar sources available at the time the honey was made by the honeybees.

There are many myths about the power of extremely local honey helping with seasonal allergies.  The scientific data on this issue is somewhat lacking in our opinion.  However, if you have found local honey to help with your seasonal allergies, please continue to use it.  Try our honey and see if it has the same effect!

We can’t speak too much about the healing properties of honey.  There are many obvious benefits for raw honey based on the properties of the components found in honey.  If you have any medical conditions, it’s always a good idea to consult with your doctor before trying any new foods or supplements. 

No! Please do not feed honey to babies under the age of 1 year old.  It can cause a serious and sometimes fatal disease.
