Prairie Flower Honey

from pale gold to light amber, its taste evolves into something richer, grassy, slightly earthy, and full of character. During this time, dozens of native prairie flower species burst into bloom, creating a diverse and dynamic nectar source for our bees. The result is a truly seasonal honey that reflects the complexity and beauty of the wildflowers that define Minnesota’s prairies. Its flavor is floral and complex, with subtle earthy and herbal notes that shift slightly from season to season, reflecting the changing makeup of wildflowers each year. This honey is harvested using our single-source method, meaning each jar contains nectar from just one location and bloom period, offering an authentic taste of place. Whether you drizzle it over granola, stir it into herbal tea, or savor it by the spoonful, Prairie Flower Honey brings the wild beauty of Minnesota’s prairies right to your table. Since this raw honey is unheated and therefore contains the original antibiotic and medicinal properties that the bees produced, it may be liquid, partially liquid or crystallized.
