Questions and Answers about Your Honey
We get several questions and here are the most common questions we receive.
No. You may see it crystalize but that is completely normal.
You can still use it as is. It tastes great spread on toast or a bagel, etc. If you would prefer it to be smooth again, you can put it in a pot of warm water on the stove and warm it up. DO NOT BOIL IT! You want lukewarm water no higher than 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
No. Doing so kills all of the beneficial enzymes from the high quality, raw and unpasteurized honey that you purchased from us.
We take 1 tsp minimum, each day, straight from the bottle. It is also delicious when added to smoothies, ice tea or drizzled on desserts.
While there is no guarantee, some people believe they notice improvement with their allergies.

Our main honey flow, here in northwest Missouri, ranges from May through mid-July. This is the only time we will pull excess honey from the bees.
