Rochester, NY native Jillisa Lynn is an accomplished Model, Actress, Author, and Entrepreneur. She has been building her beesiness Hint of Her since the beginning of 2022, blending her creative talents with a mission to help save the bees and spread sweetness through her brand, Hint of Her Honey. By partnering with local farms in Rochester and Canandaigua, as well as a wonderful cooperative in North Carolina, she is able to source some of the most sought-after raw honey in the world.

 

Her journey began unexpectedly when she started saving bees from her pool with what she called her “bee pole,” giving them a chance to dry and fly again. Fittingly, one of her nicknames growing up was “Pooh Bear,” a reminder of her lifelong love for honey. That small act of compassion grew into a deeper awareness of the healing benefits of pure, raw honey for health, skin, and immunity. After years of prayer about how she could give back to the world, the signs pointed clearly to bees, our most precious pollinators! 

Since launching Hint of Her Honey, Jillisa has expanded her reach beyond her booth at the Rochester Public Market and her boutique storefront, The Hive Beetique in North Winton Village. Her honey is featured at Create A Pizza, a local favorite pizzeria, Craft Company No. 6, a one-of-a-kind artisan gift shop, and The Beef And Butter Company, a farm-to-table grocery destination. These partnerships reflect the growing demand for her collection of raw honeys and natural, honey-inspired seasonal products. She’s even added products to Amazon Prime in August of 2025!

 

From market stalls to retail shelves, Through every jar, Jillisa’s mission remains clear: to protect the bees, educate her community, and make the world a bit sweeter, one bottle of A Hint of Her honey at a time.
