We have been harvesting our 2020 summer honey! We have been fortunate to have a great crop (so far) and are continuing to remove supers and extract the bounty our bees have provided for us.
Summer honey is mostly from the clover growing in our pastures, as clover is the dominant flower during spring and summer. This honey is mild in flavor! However, because our bees also pollinate our 120 apple trees in the spring, we have been able to detect a hint of apple flavor in this year's crop!
Summer honey (and what remains of the 2019 fall honey crop) is available in 12 oz. bears, 1 lb squeeze bottles, and 1 qt glass bottles. The quart jar of honey contains 3 lbs of honey. You can find our price list on the Cattle page; just click on the button!
Did you know that the flavor of honey depends on the flower the bees visit? As described above, our summer honey has a mild, clover-based flavor with hints of apple. Our fall honey has a bolder, more aromatic flavor because the bees visit goldenrod and aster plants in the late summer and early fall.
If you have never tasted different flavors of honey, we are offering a "Taste & Compare" special. You can purchase 1 lb of summer honey and 1 lb of fall honey and conduct your own taste test for only $15! Just call or email the contact info on the price list.
