What is terroir?

It’s everything from land to air that contributes to the essence of the plant, such as soil, rain fall, sun exposure, heat exposure, season length.

Like grapes and other fruits. Honey is the fruit reward to the animals that help with the reproduction of plants, for fruiting plants the reward to the animals consists of food and nourishments. For flowers its nectar, which the bees convert into honey. Depending on what flowers the bees can utilize, will depend on what honey is produced. Darker honey has different nectar and pollen than lighter honey. That is why we make three distinct harvests.

We take an adaptive conventional and cultural approach to beekeeping. Beekeeping best practices change and very every year to handle the potential loss of bees. The most important aspects for us is keeping the bees healthy, environment clean, and teach as many people about bees as we can.
