AT THE HONEY FARM
 Pat and I would like to thank everyone who came to our honey sales stand this year to purchase honey. We wish we could have stayed open longer but once the vineyard and grapes are done we must close the stand and all other sales are done through our website. Remember, you can arrange for picking up your order when you check out on our e-commerce site.
There was a relatively small crop of honey in 2009 for us and most other beekeepers in Michigan. This has been driving the cost of honey up somewhat.
We are now finishing the removal of the honey crop
and preparing our bees for the winter.
We did have a good crop of Comb Honey and have it on sale during the rest of the year Click here to purchase comb honey.... |

HONEY FARM FAQ
Do we purchase honey?
In some years, like 2009, we cannot even come close to producing the amount of honey necessary for our customers that come to our sales stand. In order to take care of everyone we do purchase honey from other local beekeepers in our area.
