We love our bees and do everything in our power to provide them with a natural and organic means of being. Located in Otter Tail County Minnesota, our apiaries are on the edges of deciduous forests overlooking the wild flowers of northern Minnesota grassland prairies. Strategically placed in naturally occurring flora, our bees are provided with varied and diversified sources for nectar and pollen and live away from mono-agricultural practices. We never move or rent our our bees for pollination, this to avoid exposure to pesticides.
Chemicals never enter our hives nor do we smoke our bees. We selectively harvest meaning we are always leaving enough honey for the bees to make it through the harsh Minnesota winters. It is our aim to procure the finest pure and naturally occurring honey possible while at the same time providing a healthy and sustainable environment for our bees.
We find it paramount that the honeybee be returned to the natural cycles of their existence in order to continue on in a healthy and sustainable fashion. By keeping our bees stationary in naturally occurring ecosystems and at the same time providing them with the love and attention they require, we believe the honeybee will again thrive. Our aim is to procure the finest naturally occurring honey possible while at the same time empowering our bees towards a restorative future.
We are a small family business led by Matthew Meyer who takes solace in the bees and finds hope through them that, in a seemingly unbalanced world, it will all continue on and generations to come will be able to stand in awe of nature and the honeybee. He is accompanied in the Apiaries by his loving wife Christine and Edmund the English Springer Spaniel who has been stung many times but continues to wag his tail.
