Tupelo

Provided in limited quantities from our network partner in Florida, Tupelo Honey is a very mild and smooth floral tasting honey. It has a light golden amber color and is absolutely delicious! At the opportune time, the hives are moved into place along the banks of the Calhoun, Chipola and Apalachicola rivers, where there is an abundance of tupelo gum trees. While only in bloom for 2 to 3 weeks, this unique honey offering is a rather difficult product to collect and provide. We are fortunate to offer Tupelo Honey to our customers, yet quantities are limited.

 

Wildflower

Known as multi-floral (or poly-floral) honey, Wildflower honey is derived from the nectar of a variety of many flowers and / or blossoms. As a general rule, Wildflower honey is usually darker in color, offering more antioxidants as compared to lighter colored honeys. As the flowers and blooms used to make Wildflower honey vary throughout the spring, summer and autumn seasons, the aroma and flavor will also vary. Usually taking on the aroma and flavor of the more dominant flowers and blooms at the time the nectar is collected by the forager bees. Our spring and early summer Wildflower honey is usually a rich, amber colored honey. While in late summer to early fall, the nectar from Buckwheat and Goldenrod make for a rich, dark honey.

All of it bursting with flavor!

Raspberry Blossom

A smooth light amber honey derived from the nectar provided in the white blooms of raspberry bushes during pollination season (June – July). This artisan honey is a single varietal or mono-floral honey, which means that the honeybees have collected the nectar predominately from one nectar source.

Enjoy!

Blueberries are native to North America and are perennial flowers providing us not only with delicious indigo-blue colored berries, but a smooth medium amber honey derived from the pollination of blueberry bushes. Working in conjunction with blueberry farmers, studies have shown that for each hive placed per acre, a farmer can expect another 1,000 pounds of fruit. With hints of blueberry throughout the honey, this selection is the perfect addition to your morning tea or served as a drizzle over a stack of pancakes. Enjoy!
