Honey in the Shelterbelt store comes from Hedge Brook Hives in Brooktondale, https://www.hedgebrookhives.com. These hard-working bees are lovingly managed by Master Beekeeper JoBeth Dingman. Their Spring honey is lighter, comprised mostly of black locust, clover, and sometimes basswood. The Fall honey is darker, and is mostly made from goldenrod and aster nectar, with some knotweed and knapweed. Hedge Brook Hives' honey is totally raw and minimally filtered, so it contains all the enzymes, pollen, and antibodies that make it more medicine than food. But this does mean that it tends to crystallize, the Fall honey much sooner than the Spring honey.
