Summer Mountain Honey Products

07/19/2025

We currently are selling honey while supplies last! Currently selling 16 oz jars, $20 dollars each, remember honey is sold by weight not ounces!! This size is 1.5 lbs of honey! Please reach out to schedule and set up a time with us to pick up your honey!
** please note the color difference, each hives is unique and mother nature decides on its content...the time we harvest also affects the color and consistency... we currently have 16 hives each unique in its own right!

For some of you wondering what the difference is between store bought honey and raw honey that you find from your local beekeeper..here is some food for thought...

Turns out, some of the honey that you’ll find on grocery store shelves is not actually real honey. Absurd, I know but hear us out...

It’s a product of an unethical yet widespread practice called “honey laundering.” Real honey contains pollen, while store bought honey has the pollen removed and is heated to a certain point where it looses many of its health benefits.
Honey is typically extracted from the comb, either squeezed or spun in a machine called an extractor. In raw honey nothing else is done other than using a strainer to pull out any bees that got stuck in the honey or any other debris that fell in while harvesting.The store honey that you find on store shelves, the liquid honey is often heated and blended with processed sweeteners. Some love it, some don’t.

ABOUT 70% or more of liquid honey is fraudulent, so remember the next time you buy honey from your local store, there’s a very good chance that you aren’t getting all the benefits you normally would get with raw honey that was freshly harvested by your local bee keeper. The store bought honey is more than likely not the real deal.

Honey is one of natures antibiotics and has been used for thousands of years for healing on the inside AND outside. ♥️Read below what they have to say:

“Summer Mountain Honey, 100% Pure, Raw, Natural, local Pennsylvania Honey.

Unlike regular store bought honey, our honey is never processed or heated in order to maintain all vital nutrient qualities of antioxidants, pollen, enzymes and vitamins. Most large honey producers heat/pasteurize their honey to make it easier to handle and bottle faster which destroys all the nutrients! Summer Mountain Honey believes in letting the bees keep their honey raw and natural just the way the bees intended!

Our honey comes straight from our Hives located right here in Bernville PA.”

So this was last yr but Matt the beekeeper was returning the wax back to the bees so they can clean off all the access honey after we harvest but it began downpouring so he left it on the deck until the rain passed, a few minutes later, the bees had already found it before we could take it back to them!!! At least they are friendly and they could care less we are out here with them. This is how we get our wax cleaned.

Honey bees are amazing!!

From capped honey to liquid gold.

Please note our honey that we are selling is raw and unfiltered! Our honey is strained but unfiltered..what does this mean to you???

Since raw honey is taken right from the hive, it might contain some remnants of the bees who made it. There could be some chunks of wax or little bee parts that have stuck around. Because of this, it is important that we strain the honey so that you’re only eating the golden goodness you want. It’s not filtered, instead we only gently strained to remove these undesirable parts, but we’re sure to keep the other goodies in, and yes it may contain pollen and is exactly what some of you are looking for...This is especially beneficial for those who seek allergy relief and help fight off colds and there are many other benefits...here's a few facts and benefits to remind you what it can do for you.... to some this is their liquid GOLD!!

Some have asked, what are the benefits of raw unfiltered honey??? Below we made a list of the benefits:

1.)INCREASED ENERGY & BRAIN FUNCTION
Due to the vitamins, minerals, and natural sugars (glucose) found in raw honeycomb, this gives you a completely natural, long-lasting boost of energy.

2.)LOWERS CHOLESTEROL & SUPPORTS BLOOD PRESSURE LEVELS
Because raw honeycomb is a rich source of phenols and other antioxidant compounds, it is linked to lowering cholesterol and supporting blood pressure levels.

3.)SUPPORTS GUT HEALTH & PH BALANCE
All-natural honeycomb helps to improve the overall health and function of your digestive system by restoring the presence of good bacteria and balancing pH levels.

4.)CUE UP YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM
Honeycomb's thick consistency along with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties can also help relieve sore throats, bronchitis and even pneumonia.

5.)SUPPORTS HEALTHY INFLAMMATORY RESPONSE
Royal jelly found in the honeycomb is a natural anti-inflammatory and carries antibacterial properties.

6.)ALLERGY RELIEF
Honeycomb contains pollen, which can alleviate asthma and allergies, such as hay fever.

7.)LOADED WITH VITAMINS & MINERALS
According to the USDA, natural vitamins and minerals in raw honeycomb include: calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc, and potassium. Raw honeycomb also contains Vitamins C, B6 and B12, A, E, and D.

8.)REDUCES FREE RADICALS & PROTECT YOUR LIVER
Studies have shown eating honeycomb can help support your liver and neutralize toxins. Antioxidants such as polyphenols help to protect the liver and also helps protect your body from cell damage due to free radicals.

9.)PROMOTES BETTER SLEEP
Raw honeycomb promotes the proper balance of sugars for your liver and helps to produce the hormones necessary for achieving better sleep. It also causes a rise in insulin and triggers serotonin, the hormone for improving one's mood.

Hope you find these facts as interesting as we did! Enjoy and- Pass the Honey!
