Beekeeping in Southgate Ontario, Canada

Low Intervention

Our hives are sited on pernament apiaries and are inspected infrequently. They winter entirely on their own honey. Our combs are naturally drawn without any plastic elements and are constantly renewed to limit the toxins they accumulate from our environment.

Our Honey

We utilise a wine press to extract our Honey. Many of our combs have pollen beneath the honey layer. This is extruded into our honey by the press producing a unique flavour and higher nutrition. Amounts vary by season and batch. As unpaturised honey typically crystalizes rapidly, we seed the honey with honey that has a micro fine crystal structure to make a soft-set honey. The result is a spreadable honey that will not require heating to get out of the jar. Honey is packaged in 500g jars. Please contact us for larger sizes to be bottled upon request.

Location

We are 10 minutes west of Dundalk. There is a Self Serve Honesty Box at the front of the driveway.
