Isolated from big agribusiness, the Ozarks are a purer source of natural nutrients and foods than areas where land has been altered by chemicals and pesticides. We explore permaculture, biodynamics, various methods of organic gardening, herbs and essential oils. Interested in becoming a beekeeper? Talk to us about mentoring. We do nothing to alter the pure raw honeycomb that we sell. Traditional health use of honey did not use “clarifying” to remove the pollen and propolis and did not use pasteurization (heating), which destroys the natural enzymes. Neither do we. We feed our bees honey, never corn syrup. We use no antibiotics. We simply cut and place the comb in a container for you. The bees do the packaging. You enjoy. Find us seasonally at Crossroads Farmers’ Market (Tricycle Farm). We also sell directly to the public, so contact us by email if you want to buy at other times.
