This raw Manuka Honey comes from D’Urville Island in the Marlborough Sounds of New Zealand. It is so remote it can only be accessed by boat. The master beekeeper that operates these hives is Jeff Lukey. He has 40 years bee keeping experience and is one of the best in New Zealand. His bees enjoy feasting on the manuka flowers that are indigenous to New Zealand. This manuka honey has been tested to strict NZ government standards and has an activity of MGO 265+. MGO (Methylglyoxal) is the key measure of the special activity from manuka honey. It is an ideal honey to support general everyday well-being needs.

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.
