4 Ways to Buy Raw Honey from Dave's Bees

Our honey comes exclusively from our own bees raised on our farm. We don't move hives for pollination, buy bees from other apiaries, or buy other beekeepers' honey for resale.   This means we know that our bees and honey are pure. We manage our hives with natural methods that do not rely on synthetic chemicals to control pests such as varroa mites.  Because conventional fungicides and pesticides cause harm to pollinators, we manage our pastures and orchards organically. Our soils are continuously improved with managed grazing by sheep, pigs, horses, turkeys, and chickens.  We overseed clover annually for nectar and nitrogen.    We collaborate with PASA (Pennsylvania Association of Sustainable Farming) on their long-term Soil Benchmark Health Study.   Our results demonstrate the benefits of regenerative farming methods.  Ask about our on-going Silvopasture project, which combines pasture and trees to benefit soils, pollinators and grazing livestock in an integrated farming system.
