Samantha and James discovered beekeeping by chance, when a friend suggested they try it for a summer on a farm in central Minnesota. Finding themselves with a passion they never dreamed off, they dove in head-first! Now, they run a family farm in Iola, Wisconsin, accompanied by their little one and Kat the parrot (the bird in "Bird and the Bees").
Why We Love This
Why We Love This
These really are some busy bees: Samantha and James actually pack up their hives and travel with them to California each winter, where the bees pollinate warm-weather orchards before returning to the family farm in Iola, WI for summer honey production. It takes so much effort and risk to produce a small amount of honey, making it a true labor of love and a special gift. Because honey tastes different depending on what the bees eat, the end product is a hyper-local reflection of our region's landscape. . --Gigi
This 6 oz jar of honey, produced in Iola, Wisconsin, makes a fantastic gift - pair with tea or a loaf of local bread!
From the apiary:
"Wisconsin Wildflower is the product of summer in a jar; the bees have been visiting flowers that bloom all summer from basswood to goldenrod and everything in between. This honey is a rich amber colored honey with warm spice notes and a fruity finish. This is one of my favorite honeys to use in drinks and in cooking where you really want the honey flavor to shine since it has a little stronger flavor."
