Bees are downright amazing. They communicate with each other through dance, they evaporate water from honey in their hives by flapping their wings, and they visit more than 2 million blossoms just to create one pound of honey. During a bees quest for nectar, it collects and spreads pollen, playing a critical role in pollinating our local farmlands.

As a result of our happy honeybees unique talents and travels throughout Yolo, Solano, Colusa and Sacramento counties, honey contains beneficial enzymes and bee pollen. Fresh to Market honey is pure, raw and all-natural, which means it is extracted and filtered in such a way as to keep those beneficial enzymes intact. An added bonus? Many believe that the trace pollen contained in local honey helps reduce seasonal allergy symptoms.
We have good reason to believe that after you try our spectacular all-natural honey, you too will want to spread the word about our amazing little friend, the honeybee.
