Wild Flower Honey
Foraged from the garden of Ruby and Michael
Raw and floral
Our bees forage on a wide variety of natives, flowers and vegetables from our patch. The taste, consistency and colour of our honey reflects each season and what is in flower. Each frame of honey has its own characteristics of consistency, colour and floral notes. They taste and look different, and are natural and raw.
Straight from the hive into the jar
Harvesting honey can be quite messy and sticky! Our hive setup allows us to fill the jars straight from the hive. The honey is not filtered or heated and is completely raw, meaning nothing is taken away from the honey.
Pure and natural
Honey is seasonal, and as a result texture, taste and colour will be slightly different in each jar. You may find some small specs in your jar, this is just pollen! It is totally fine to consume and has some great health benefits.
​
Another natural process of honey is crystallization. Honey begins to crystallize as soon as it is extracted from the hive. The rate of this depends on the glucose content, determined by the type of flowers the bees have foraged on. Some flowers contain more than others.
Crystallization also occurs when temperatures are below 10 degrees. You can place a jar of crystalized honey in the warm sun or a warm bowl of water to make it runny again.
