I have Honey available for sell from June to September, or whenever it runs out! This is local Fredericksburg Honey that has been lightly filtered but never heated.

I am also available upon request to make my Apiary available if you just want to take a look.
Why Honeybees?
– GLOBAL FOOD SECCURITY: Because without them one third of our food we eat and 80% of flowering plants would not be pollinated!
– ECOSYSTEM: They support the basic ecosystems that provide food and shelter for other wildlife.
– ECONOMIC IMPACT: Globally the annual contribution of pollinators to the Global food system is between $250B – $550B.
– HUMAN HEALTH AND INNOVATION: Honey Bee resources have been used for centuries in traditional medicine for antibaterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties. The honey bee stinger was used to model surgical needles!
