For the Health of the Hive:
More than a motto

 
 

 Since 1860 beekeeping has been our family’s way of life. We are a family of beekeepers based in Milton-Freewater, Oregon, and produce honey and related products from our family hives. We specialize in producing unique, raw, varietal honey from our regional apiaries.

We are passionate about the health of our bees and the products they produce. This means our honey has not been processed, filtered, or heated above hive temperature so that you can benefit from the natural pollens, enzymes, phytonutrients, and antioxidant properties that raw honey possesses.

The honey our bees produce is extracted and packed on-site here at the farm, reducing the carbon footprint of transporting the honey from producer to packer and back to the consumer. Additionally, we use only glass jars that are beautiful & reusable. This glass jar allows you to reliquify your raw honey safely and maintain the original quality.

We use sustainable, future-minded management practices with the bees to increase hive longevity and health. This includes selecting apiaries with forage that is minimally/not affected by pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides. That equates to healthier bees and pure honey you can feel good about eating. In addition, all of our honey is tested to ensure it is free from pesticides, antibiotics or other toxins.

At Sweet Bee Honey Company we believe in the future of honey bees, and want our customers to feel empowered to help save to bees too!
