About our honey

What does raw and unblended mean?

Raw means the honey is extracted from the comb, coarsely strained and not finely filtered. It is never warmed above 38 °C. That way the pollen and enzymes are kept.

Unblended means: one harvest, from one beekeeper. Never a blend of honey from different countries.

Where does your honey come from?

Every jar is traceable to the beekeeper. The Dutch wildflower honey comes from Dirk in Groningen, the Acacia honey from Radu and Flavia in Romania and the Creamed wildflower honey from Henk in Germany. The side of the label tells you who made the honey, where and when.

Is the honey tested?

Yes. Every batch is lab-tested before it reaches your table.

My honey has gone hard. Has it gone off?

No, quite the opposite. It is called crystallisation, and it is a natural process in honey. Want to make your honey runny again? Put the jar in a bowl of warm water and let the honey soften slowly.

Why is your honey more expensive than supermarket honey?

Supermarket honey is usually a blend from several countries, often heated so it stays runny for a long time. Our honey comes from one harvest by one beekeeper we know by name. You pay for a small harvest you can trace, not for a blend from the global trade.

How long does honey keep?

Honey practically never goes off. The best-before date is on the label. Keep the jar tightly closed, dry, dark and at room temperature. There is no need for the fridge.

Can I give honey to my child?

Not for children under 12 months. After that, it is fine.

Project Save The Bees

What is the Wild bee seed mix?

A 25 gram packet of organically grown seed, including phacelia, cornflower and sunflower. Enough for just over 5 m² of flowers that attract bees.

When and how do I sow the bee seed mix?

Sow directly outdoors from March to August, in a sunny spot. Use 25 grams per 5 m².

What is the goal of Project Save The Bees?

Together with our customers, we are sowing 1 million m² of flowers for wild bees. Every packet of bee seed mix brings us 5 m² closer to that goal. See the roadmap.
