Honeybees collect nectar from hundreds of species of wildflowers, fruit trees, and vegetables in order to produce honey. The color and flavor of honey depends on the flowers from which bees gather the nectar. The color of honey ranges in a wide variety of colors from water white through different shades of amber to dark amber. A single hive (colony) of honeybees must tap 200,000 flowers and travel over 55,000 miles to gather enough nectar to produce just one pound of honey. In fact, a single female worker honeybee will only make 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey in her short lifespan of approximately 40 days!

We sell locally produced varietal honey from our Russian bee yards located in the piedmont and coastal plains of North Carolina and South Carolina including Sourwood Honey, Wildflower Honey, Gallberry Honey, and Goldenrod Honey. In addition, we also produce and sell cut honeycomb, chunk honey containing a generous chunk of honeycomb emmersed in liquid honey, spun honey, and herbal infused honey to retail customers. Our Cinnamon Spun Honey and Blackberry Spun Honey are our hottest spun honey sellers. Try our Cinnamon Infused Honey in your hot coffee or hot tea.

Wildflower honey produced at our other honeybee yards also comes from a varied floral source such as yaupon, Chinese tallow tree, red maple, sourwood trees, clovers, blackberries, wild plums, goldenrods, climbing hempvine, asters, and other tree, shrub, and wildflower species found in the piedmont areas of North Carolina and South Carolina.

We keep our Carolina honey produced and harvested from our Russian honeybee colonies at each bee yard separate from honey produced from other bee yards. Honey crops from different locations from just a few miles apart can have totally different honey flavors. For those of you who are from southern Louisiana, we occasionally stock honey from just outside of Baton Rouge, Louisiana where Golden Delight Honey, LLC began back in 2005.
