Hive to Harvest
Honey Bees

At Stonehouse Farm, our Italian honey bees are more than just pollinators—they're an integral part of our ecosystem and a cherished part of daily farm life. These gentle, hard-working bees support the health of our gardens, berry patches, fig trees, and flowering plants, ensuring vibrant blooms and bountiful harvests across the seasons.

​

Our hives are cared for using responsible, bee-first practices that prioritize hive health and sustainability. We provide our colonies with ample forage, clean water, and carefully monitor for pests and disease to ensure strong, thriving hives. We harvest only excess honey—leaving plenty behind for the bees—resulting in rich, golden honey with the subtle floral notes of our farm's diverse landscape.

​

From pollination to preservation, our bees help us cultivate abundance. Whether drizzled over toast or stirred into tea, each jar of Stonehouse Farm honey is a taste of the land we lovingly steward.
