Get honey directly from the beekeeper! Our signature Star Thistle honey is harvested from the nectar of the Star Thistle wildflower, which thrives in the open fields and prairies of northern Michigan. This honey is celebrated for its light hue and delightful sweetness, making it one of the most desired table honey varieties in America. Its exquisite flavor has also made it a favorite choice among chefs for upscale culinary presentations, such as charcuterie boards.
At Sleeping Bear Farms and Apiary, we pride ourselves on bottling honey sourced exclusively from our own beehives. We aim to be your reliable supplier of pure, authentic American honey. Our classic quart size jars contain a robust three pounds of honey, featuring a wide mouth for effortless access. This design allows for easy measuring in recipes, ensuring you have enough honey to last while occupying minimal space in your pantry.
When you order from us, you're getting honey straight from the source. We handle everything from extraction to bottling and shipping, ensuring that you receive only pure, all-natural Grade A American honey. You can trust that you are buying directly from the beekeepers, with no intermediary storage like Amazon inventory involved!
Star Thistle, a wildflower commonly found in the expansive fields of northern Michigan, is distinguished by its striking little purple flowers that produce abundant light pollen. This flower serves as the primary forage source for our bees in the month leading up to our annual honey extraction, ensuring a premium product.
Our Grade A USA honey is packed with essential nutrients, vitamins, and amino acids, all the natural goodness that Mother Nature intended. This honey is perfect not only for everyday use but also as an ingredient in various dishes. It's an excellent complement to baking, coffee, tea, cheese, shakes, smoothies, bagels, English muffins, roasted carrots, and fresh fruits like pears or apples. Additionally, it elevates any charcuterie platter!
One of the remarkable traits of genuine honey is its long shelf life; it does not spoil. Granulation may occur over time, resulting in a crystallized texture. However, you can easily restore it to a liquid state with gentle heating. This crystallization is indicative of authentic unpasteurized honey. For re-liquification, fill a small pan with water and heat it to approximately 160 degrees, then remove it from the stove. Submerge the jar in the water using tongs or another form of protection against hot water splashes, cover the pan, and let it sit overnight.
We offer farm-to-table honey products straight from the dedicated beekeepers, ensuring a connection between what you eat and where it comes from. Our honey, our hives, our facility, and our service all contribute to providing you with the finest quality honey.
