Description
🍯 Raw Wildflower Honey — Apiary2 (Clayton)
This honey comes from our Apiary2 hives in Clayton, Johnston County, NC (zip code 27520). It’s the darkest and richest honey in our lineup — with a bold sweetness, deep floral tones, and distinctive hints of buckwheat that set it apart from our lighter Apiary1 and Apiary3 honeys. The flavor profile changes from season to season based on what the bees forage, making every harvest unique.
Every jar is small-batch harvested and hand-bottled by our family — the same way we’ve been doing it for over 14 years.

🌰 Why Is This Honey Darker?
Honey color and flavor depend entirely on what the bees forage. Our Apiary2 bees in Clayton have access to different wildflower and plant sources than our other apiaries — including buckwheat, which contributes to the darker amber color and richer, more complex flavor. Dark honeys are also known to contain higher levels of antioxidants. Every season produces a slightly different harvest, so no two years taste exactly the same.

🐝 What Makes Our Honey Different?
Most store-bought honey is blended, ultrafiltered, heated, or imported. Ours isn’t. Every jar of Shuga Bee Farm honey is produced by our own bees, harvested by our own hands, and bottled in small batches right here in Johnston County. We’ve been doing this for over 14 years because we believe local honey should be real honey — nothing added, nothing taken away.
⚠️ Safety Notice: Do not feed honey to infants under 12 months of age. Learn more about honey and infant safety.
