Everybody knows honey helps seasonal allergies – but do you know why?

It’s all about the pollen. You can purchase pure bee pollen on its own, but this can be pricey. Raw honey also contains its fair share of pollen, and it’s delicious. The key is to find RAW honey. Processed honey is heated and ultrafiltered to prevent crystallization. This process, unfortunately, kills and removes the pollen spores that we want. The more local your honey is, the more likely it is to contain the pollen in your area you are allergic to. Keep in mind, however, that it must be raw for that to even matter. “Local” honey sold in stores is often still processed.

The more pollen your honey has, the more likely it is to crystalize. If you’ve gotten honey from me that crystalized, it means two things – it’s chock-full of pollen, and you didn’t eat it fast enough! If you do end up with a crystalized jar, it’s very easy to fix. You can set it in hot water until the crystals melt. You’ll end up killing the pollen spores, but it will never crystalize again. It might not help as much with allergies after that, but it will still taste great! You’ll just know to eat your next jar of raw honey a little faster.

Bonus fact – Honey never spoils! Crystalized or not, it’s still good to eat, literally forever!

The wait is over!!! Honey for sale 🍯🐝

Two varieties available, both harvested at the peak of orange blossom season (it took me a while to get jars)

12 oz. Jar of Orange Blossom for $12
-light golden honey
-perfectly sweet with a subtle tang

12 oz. Jar of Ultra-light honey for $14
-this honey was pulled at the same time as the orange blossom, but has a distinctly different color and flavor. Super mild, subtly sweet, without a bit of tang. I call this my “Premo” honey for a reason. Although the bees didn’t tell me where they got it, my best guess would be from the elderberry tree by their hive. It blooms the same time as the orange blossoms. *Limited quantity available

Message me to order yours!

I installed a new queen yesterday! 👸🐝 Check out the cool “Queen Cage” we use! When you introduce a new queen to a hive, it takes some time for the bees to accept her. Without the queen cage the other bees would kill her pretty quickly. To avoid this, you place the queen, cage and all, inside the hive. The cage keeps her nice and safe until the other bees accept her. How does she get out of the cage you might ask?? The cage has a hole she can escape through that’s s plugged up with sugar paste. The queen and other bees slowly eat the sugar paste blocking the hole until it’s gone and she can escape (the part of the cage I’m holding in the video is where she’ll escape through eventually). This usually takes a few days, and by that time they are ready to accept her. Pretty amazing right?!?! 🐝
