The Buzz

Get ready to make your garden the hottest spot in the neighborhood for our buzzing buddies! Here's a fun and friendly blog post about attracting bees to your garden.

Sourwood honey comes from the delicate white flowers of the Sourwood tree (Oxydendrum arboreum), which blooms for a short window in mid-summer. The bees absolutely adore these blossoms, and the result is a honey unlike any other. It's often difficult to find because the sourwood tree only grows in specific regions, making it a truly special treat.

Imagine honey straight from the beehive, just like the bees made it. That's raw honey! It's simply strained to remove any bits of comb or propolis, but that's it. It hasn't been heated, pasteurized, or filtered at high temperatures. This minimal processing is key to keeping all its incredible natural goodness intact. Now, regular, or "processed" honey, is a different story. It often undergoes pasteurization (heating at high temperatures) and ultra-filtration. Why do they do this? To make it look clearer, smoother, and to extend its shelf life. Sounds good, right? Not so fast!
