Honey doesn't expire if it's natural, properly preserved, and stored in a sealed container.
We recommend storing your honey on the counter or in the cabinet of your kitchen away from direct sunlight. If your honey hardens over time, you can soften the honey by placing the bottle in a bowl of warm water for 30 minutes.
Please do not give honey to children younger than 1 year old.
Our natural honey is strained, not pasteurized.
The welfare of our bees is our top priority, that is why we take proactive measures when harvesting honey to ensure that our bees remain safe. When bees are harmed in the harvesting process, this is often the result of stinging a beekeeper, but not from the honey harvesting process.
Mountain wildflower honey is a type of honey derived from the diverse floral sources available in mountainous regions. This honey is produced by bees that forage on a wide variety of wildflowers growing at higher altitudes, where the air is often cooler and the environment relatively untouched by urban development. These wildflowers bloom throughout the spring and summer, providing a rich and varied diet for the bees. The resulting honey is a complex blend of the nectars from many different plants, each contributing its unique flavor notes and properties. This complexity not only makes mountain wildflower honey highly flavorful, often with subtle floral undertones, but also reflects the biodiversity of the mountain ecosystem from which it originates.
Wildflower honey is renowned for its health benefits, stemming from its diverse floral sources. Rich in antioxidants, it helps combat oxidative stress and may reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and certain cancers. Its natural antibacterial properties also make it effective in wound healing and as an aid in the treatment of sore throats and other bacterial infections. Moreover, wildflower honey often contains pollen from various plants, which some suggest may help reduce pollen allergy symptoms through gradual exposure.
