The same bees, in the same location, produced both of these bottles of honey. The only change was the time of year and what was available to forage! The light honey is from this spring (just harvested) and the dark honey is from the fall.

Our bees usually don't get to harvest the huge early nectar flow because the weather isn't warm enough yet. However, this spring was unusually warm for a couple weeks and we were lucky enough for a spring harvest!! Let us know if you want some light, floral, spring honey.
