MELJESS BEES Raw Wildflower Honey (3 lbs)

Discover the pinnacle of honey quality with our raw, unfiltered, local, and beyond organic wildflower honey 🍯.

Raw Honey stands as a superfood revered throughout history for its sweetness and medicinal benefits 🌿. It's a unique food that resists rot and spoilage, making it an ageless wonder. Packed with antibacterial properties, honey has been scientifically shown to outperform neosporin as an antiseptic. However, the honey found in today's markets, even health food stores, often falls short of the real deal found in natural beehives 🐝.

Similar to terms like "Cage Free" or "Free Range," the label "Raw" lacks regulation, permitting its use despite processing and filtering. True raw honey remains unheated and unfiltered, preserving its nutritional richness. Filtering, a common practice, strips honey of vital bee pollen, a potent ally in battling allergies and hay fever. Avoiding heating is crucial too, as natural enzymes beneficial for digestion and inflammation management are destroyed. Assurance of quality stems from knowing the source 🏞️.

All our honey derives from Meljess Bees 🐝

The name is an homage to Beekeeper James Reese's daughters, Melyna and Jessica. With approximately 500 hives, James Reese tends to the bees, while Lydia Reese handles bottling and labeling. Dakota Anderson, their son-in-law, showcases honey at local farmer's markets.

Dakota shares insights into their honey and process:

What sets us apart is our meticulous process, bringing honey from hive to kitchen in its purest, rawest form. Imagine consuming honey directly from the comb, but far more accessible. Our local, small-scale production elevates quality, with bees under our personal care. We guarantee 100% pure honey, free from dilution or store-bought additives. Eschewing mass-production heat treatments, we retain our honey's essence. Unique to us, our honey remains in the bottling unit overnight, allowing impurities to rise for easy removal. The result is 99% clean, optimally nutritious raw honey.
