Buckwheat Honey

  • $12.00

8oz and 1 Pound of 100% pure and raw Buckwheat Honey from New York.

Buckwheat Honey is made from the nectar of the tiny white blossoms on the buckwheat plant (the Buckwheat plant is not related to wheat grass and is gluten free). Our Buckwheat comes from New York and is one of the heartiest and robust honeys in the U.S. with an almost molasses flavor. This strong flavor lends itself to being used as a replacement in receipes for brown sugar or as a glaze for fish and pork.

Buckwheat Honey is very dark and has higher levels of antioxidants than other honeys. It was shown to be an effective cough soother in a research project completed by Penn State College of Medicine.

SUGGESTED USE: Not only is it medicinal to help sooth your coughs, we love to use Buckwheat Honey as a glaze on salmon, chicken wings, pulled pork and ribs.

BEE SMART: A honey bee can visit up to 100 flowers before returning to the hive.

our mission

My beekeeping journey began over 12 years ago with my oldest daughter begging for a dog, which led us to getting baby chickens instead,  then honey bees were added to our urban backyard farm and the rest is history.  

We're urban NYC beekeepers with a mission to help save the bees and other pollinators. Bees have been declining at an alarming rate which can impact the global food supply as bees are essential in pollination.  

Our honey is pure and raw and sourced from either our own local hives or small apiaries, like us, from around the country.  We believe in sustainable beekeeping, supporting small local beekeepers who in turn work with small local family farms to help pollinate their crops and bring you real, delicious honey.

REAL BEEKEEPERS.  REAL HONEY.  TASTE THE DIFFERENCE.
