Bringing RAW quality Honey to the Far South Peninsula Every tub, jar, squeeze bottle is traceable. Every batch is laboratory tested. Bulk sales : Some customers want to buy in bulk and fill their own containers, this is acceptable, however, we cannot give QA on the filling operation when we do not do the filling. We do offer QA on the product though and you have the benefit of our batch control and trace-ability system as it relates to the integrity of our product. Relatively few honey sellers realize that all honey must conform to the CPA. This is what distinguishes our HONEY!

honeybee pollen

“The bee’s knees,” a phrase which means “the height of excellence,” became popular in the USA in the 1920s and is still used today. The bee’s “corbiculae”, or pollen-baskets, are located on its tibiae (mid-segments of its legs – knee area). Also part of the tibia is the auricle, part of the “pollen press” which worker honey bees use to press pollen together before it is pushed up into the pollen basket (the corbicula). If you buy bee pollen and find it in little balls, the bee’s knees did that. The “bee’s knees” area is, while small, very crucial for the success of the foraging bee. Some people think that this phrase is so cool, they have gotten bees tattooed on their knees!
