Description

The Fields Honey is organic, raw, and unfiltered, derived from indigenous flowering trees and our converted pollinator habitats of native wildflower meadows, pollinated by bees that call The Fields home. This 2026 vintage marks our fourth annual harvest and production, driven by a passion for preservation, restoration, and conservation. The Fields 11 oz. Raw and Unfiltered 2026 Vintage is composed of Tulip Poplar, Black Locust, Blackberry, Coneflower, Mountain Mint, and Woodland Honeydew nectar as the dominant sources and undernotes of Willow, Penstemon, Black-eyed Susan, Aster, Redbud, Sunflower, and Dandelion. Dry, cold conditions in early spring sent the bees foraging in the forest first. Spring and summer brought frequent, short, heavy storms that allowed the bees to gather a complex array of wildflower nectar. This resulted in a rich amber honey with a full-bodied herbal profile and floral top notes from the meadow, giving way to deeper undertones of dried fig, dark caramel, and a warm, malty finish. As one of the only 100% naturally foraged, native wildflower-fed apiaries in the state, we always leave a substantial amount of honey in the hives instead of scraping them bare, and we have never used substitute feed in our hives. Honey and pollen are packed with essential nutrients and serve as the primary food source for honeybees, giving them the best chance for long-term health. The honey is presented in a glass jar with actual-size pen-and-ink artwork by Keana, exclusive to this vintage and inspired by the wildflower foliage that supports the on-site apiary at The Fields. Each jar includes an informational card with tasting notes related to the vintage and is individually packaged in pinstripe kraft boxes. This honey delivers an authentic taste of the fields we have restored into an ecological wonderland and could be the best honey you've ever tasted. It is produced from a labor of love for nature and preservation.
