New Beginnings

The new year and Spring are all about new beginnings.  Starting a new habit, trying something new or seeing what blooms in Spring.  

This year, we have had lots of rain in North Georgia and hope that we will have lots of flowers to bloom.  Those new flowers will give the honeybees lots of nectar to make into honey.  In exchange, the bees will pollinate the flowers they visit. Many of those flowers turn into the food we eat.  

Usually, it takes the bees from March to May to collect enough excess honey for us to remove from the hive, bottle it and have ready for sale in  June.  Join our mailing list and we will be glad to let you know just as soon as that fresh first harvest of honey is ready.

Bees collect nectar from so many flowers throughout the year that every harvest provides just a slightly different color and flavor.  It is that unique combination of flowers that were blooming at that time of year that helps to make Wildflower honey so special.  That unmistakable rich flavor always comes from local raw honey.  Try it.  Taste the difference yourself.
 
Please put your name on our mailing list to be notified when honey is available. See below.

Honeycomb - Pure, right from the hive
How would you like to taste honey as the bees have saved it in the beehive?  This is the purest way to eat honey.  Spread it on warm toast or just eat it by the spoonful.  There is nothing like the burst of flavor you get when you take a bite.  We have a very limited supply so give it a try and see how truly special it is.

Pure, raw wildflower honey is a mixture of nectar and pollen from the local flowers of the area.  Our honey is strained (not micro filtered) to ensure the best benefits of local, raw honey remain inside the honey.  I am a local beekeeper in Suwanee, GA that collects honey and beeswax from my bees.  Honey can be used for extra sweetness and texture for recipes, a flavor enhancer in tea or smoothies and as a topping for bread, cereal or anything else that needs something special.  The bees also make beeswax to store the honey in the beehive.  We collect a portion of that beeswax and use it in making candles, lip balm and lotion bars.  

Honeybees are very important to all of us.  They pollinate flowers that give us our food (fruits, vegetables, nuts, etc) - many of the foods would not even be here if it were not for the honeybee.  They make honey that can be used in many ways beyond a sweetener.  They create beeswax that has been used to seal or waterproof items, protect the skin or give us light.  They collect resins to make propolis - a mixture that is used by the bees to give the beehive anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, but there are many studies still discovering the many benefits of what comes from honeybees.  

All of us can help to make sure these creatures stay around.  

• Plant bee friendly wildflowers, shrubs and trees.  We can all use something that looks pretty, smells great and give us some shade.
• Use pollinator friendly pesticides in the late evenings when the bees have returned to their homes.  
• If you have a yard or land with clover or goldenrod, consider not spraying for weeds and mow less often.  Give the bees a chance to collect some of that precious nectar.  It provides variety in their diet and helps them to save some food for winter.
• Support a beekeeper.  Buy honey and other products from a local beekeeper.  They are helping to increase and preserve the honeybee population.
• Provide space to a beekeeper.  Maybe you have land somewhere that could benefit from beehives.  
• Become a beekeeper.  Just one hive can make a difference and the difference can be you.  You may even want to get more.
