Raw Locust Honey

6-15-17 Update: Going to be a small crop of Locust honey this year as we had tons or rain as the blossoms came out - the rain lasted for a number of days so the bees could not gather any nectar and the nectar they did gather they consumed as food for the hive. We'll know more in a few days. We will have Locust Honey which has apple blossom and cherry blossom in it as we have a friend in NY that was able to produce some of that as he did not get the rains that we did.

Pleasant tasting honey, aromatic, and ranging from water white to light yellow in color, this honey comes from the black locust tree which flowers in long white racemes.

This honey is tough to get as the trees are only flowering a couple of weeks at best and we typically have a big Spring storm which takes the flowers off the trees. This limits the amount of nectar bees can gather, so we never have enough Locust Honey to get us through a year and we will sell out.

We also have Locust honey with apple and cherry blossom in it. It's a bit darker than pure locust honey due to the apple blossom and cherry blossom giving it the color.

We also have a small amount of honey that we will call Spring Blossom Honey - this crystallized honey is from 2016 as we set some aside to see how long it would take to crystallize. It took 15 months to do so - this honey has Locust, Apple Blossom and Cherry Blossom in it and it is from our hives. It crystallized real soft and is easy to spread. You can also see how light it is in color.
