Hutto, Texas — north of Austin

Raw honey, straight from our backyard hives.

We keep bees on our own property, checking the hives every other week and watching them fly and forage every day in between. Our honey comes from whatever's blooming nearby — wildflowers, clover, native brush — harvested in small batches with the help of family and friends.

Who's behind the honey

A two-person, one-family operation.

We're not a big outfit. It's just us — the hives live on our own property, and we check on them ourselves every other week. We're out there most days regardless, watching the bees come and go. My mom lives close by and works the hives right alongside me: suiting up, checking frames, keeping an eye on the queens.

The bees forage on whatever's growing around us — wildflowers, pasture blooms, whatever the season brings — so the flavor shifts a little batch to batch, the way honey is supposed to.

When it's time to harvest, we do it in small batches, usually with family and friends pitching in to pull frames, extract, and bottle. Nothing is rushed, and nothing goes out that we wouldn't put on our own table.

Tending the hives

We open up the hives every other week to check on the bees, the brood, and how the honey stores are filling in — though you'll catch them flying in and out of the yard every single day.

Small-batch harvest

When the frames are ready, we pull them by hand with family and friends helping extract, filter, and settle the honey.

Every bottle is filled and labeled by us, a short drive from the hives it came from.
