This honey embodies the beauty and sweetness of our Golden State. It is a shimmering jewel in a jar, the color a luminous golden glow and the flavors full-bodied & distinctive, with a balanced blend of fruity and spicy. Harvested from the colorful and abundant flowers growing wild in the foothills, our California Wildflower honey is honey perfection.
Tastes like candy with a kick!”
This harvest is very special to us, as it reflects nature’s ability to overcome hardships and find new ways to prosper and thrive. It was collected by our bees where the California wildfires had ravaged the hillside the prior year. Many of the plants were burned off and will take years to re-establish; allowing space and sunlight to reach a multitude of small wildflowers that filled the void and bloomed, carpeting the burnt and scorched earth with a profusion of color. This is where our bees spent their days, spreading pollen from plant to plant and bringing the nectar back to create this blend of flavor and hope.
The primary floral source in this batch of California Wildflower honey is the Wild Alfalfa. It is a hearty little plant that grows throughout North America, and is able to survive a top kill from wildfires and re-sprout the next year.
