What raw means

Honey the way the bees made it

Most grocery-store honey is heated, fine-filtered, and blended, sometimes not even pure honey. Ours is none of that.

Unfiltered

Strained just enough to catch the wax, never fine-filtered. That means the pollen, enzymes, and flavor stay in the jar.

Never heated

Big producers pasteurize honey for a clear, uniform look. We never heat ours, so it stays raw, the way it left the hive.

Harvested by hand

Small batches, pulled and bottled by one local beekeeper. No factory, no blending with imported honey.

Truly local

Made by bees foraging right around Chico. For generations people have sought out local raw honey, we just make it the way the bees do.

Honey questions

Not at all, that is a good sign. Raw, unheated honey naturally crystallizes over time, which is proof it has not been processed. Set the jar in warm (not hot) water and it turns back to liquid, or enjoy it spreadable.

Raw means never heated and never fine-filtered. We strain out the wax bits and bottle it cold, so the natural pollen, enzymes, and flavor stay intact.

A lot of people seek out local raw honey for exactly that reason, and have for generations. We make no medical claims, we just make honey from the plants blooming right around Chico.
