Backyard Bees Raw Honey

Backyard Bees Raw Honey

Raw honey is honey that hasn’t been processed or heated above the natural temperatures of a bee hive (95 degrees F). At Backyard Bees, our honey is extracted in small batches, preserving its natural enzymes, antioxidants, and nutrients. It is gently filtered overnight, but you may still see a few bits of pollen or wax at the top of your jar.

Long Island Honey

Each jar is filled with the rich, natural goodness of local trees, flowers, and herbs, perfect for sweetening your tea, drizzling over pancakes, or enjoying straight from the jar. Stock is limited, so grab yours while supplies last!

Sweetness from The Hive

Honey has many health benefits, but it still is a form of sugar. Don’t overdo it!

Local honey is a seasonal delicacy – Long Island honey season peaks in July. One teaspoon of honey represents the work of 12 bees.

Honey in Backyard Bees Skincare

Honey is so yummy to eat,  and it is also fantastic on your skin. Cleopatra took baths in milk and honey and she is world renowned for her beauty. We named our Cleopatra Bars after her, and also created a Milk and Honey Bath with her in mind (even though we added a touch of lavender), and a Honey Oatmeal Face Mask Set.
