Send me a quick email and I will respond!

A quick note about the BEES. This past week, and coming week, Mike is gathering in all Honey Boxes (Supers). He is preparing the Bee's for Winter. Mike will soon be setting syrup onto each hive to give the Bee's nourishment during the birth. All The hive yards are doing well.
Mike has sold honey that the purchaser has sent as gifts to Alberta, CHINA, Texas, Arkansas, South Korea and Bangladesh.

MiKE'S RAW HONEY IS NOW SELLING AT DUTCH GROWERS, BERRY BARN, EARLY'S FARM AND FEED, TUFF TURF, ROBIN'S NEST CAFE' IN VANSCOY, Big Way Grocery in Rostern, Two Health Stores, and two Pharmacy's AND Two Confectionary's IN SASKATOON.

NEWLY PULLED HONEY AS OF JULY/2024. Photo of ME pouring honey JULY 2022.

If you look at general prices of Honey in the stores - specialty raw honey ... Mike's prices are a dollar or two less. Due to Bee loss and higher prices on plastic containers/ labelling/feed/medicines/gas in 2022-2023 we have had to increase the price on the honey. IF YOU CHECK OUT THE HONEY PRICES IN SOUTH HILL FOODS MOOSE JAW ... THEY ARE ALMOST DOUBLE!
If you wish to have more information on this decision, I would be happy to talk to you. Email me a note!

We have FRESH WILD FLOWER and Canola/Wildflower Honey available throughout the 2023-2024 year. Check out photo's of the many wildflowers in the bee yards in Jessica and Home Yard (I just posted a few new photo's of Jessica's Yard) that the Bees have visited for nectar and honey.... plus some canola and alfalfa flowers and many many more wild flowers not shown in this ad.

This Honey is directly from the Bee Hive.
It is strained and then poured, Safety SEALED with heat shrink tape, and into the container right away after it is extracted!
Dandelion/Wildflower Honey stays soft for a period of time and then will harden , IF it doesn't crystallize, it is NOT RAW HONEY.
The amber coloured plastic jars show the "Wild Flower Honey" Honey will harden with time. But due to the new extractor equipment ... it does whip the honey and tends to keep it softer.

For the hardened honey. Put the container into hot tap water and stir. By doing this, it will be soft enough to scoop up or spread This type of warming will not destroy its Raw medicinal properties.

DID YOU KNOW ... Honey HAS NO STALE DATE Honey is one of the very few foods that will self preserve. We store ours in a cool-room. Michael has read that honey has been found in the pyramids. The urned honey was tested by scientists and was found to remain completely preserved and eatable.

The 202 wild flower honey rates 10 - 14 mm on Jack's Scale of Honey color grading.
((this scale goes from 0mm (excellent) to 140mm (poor) ))
We use a refractor to determine water content .... ours in 2024 is 16 to 17 (less than 20 is the desired) 16 -16.5 is excellent!
