Raw Honey from Downtown, Alabama

Pure, raw, and local—our Downtown Birmingham honey is about as urban as it gets. Harvested from hives kept right in the heart of the city, this honey is proof that bees thrive even in an urban environment. When people say to buy honey directly from a beekeeper, that’s us. Each jar is limited in quantity, so don’t wait too long—our local honey sells out every year.

Key Features and Benefits

• Truly local honey: Sourced from hives in Downtown Birmingham, Alabama.
• Raw and unfiltered: Retains natural enzymes and pollen removed in most store-bought honey.
• Full of flavor: Floral notes that reflect the nectar sources of local blooms.
• Naturally crystallizes: A sign of purity and no over-processing.
• Small-batch harvests: Limited supply available each season.

Detailed Description

This honey is produced by our bees in Downtown Birmingham and nearby city neighborhoods. Each jar is raw and unfiltered, meaning it keeps all of the enzymes, pollen, and natural qualities that make honey remarkable. Unlike “Grade A” grocery store honey, which is ultra-filtered and stripped of its pollen, our honey contains 100% of its natural pollen content.

Because it retains its natural state, this honey will crystallize faster than standard processed honey—a hallmark of purity. From the first taste, you’ll notice its distinct floral flavor, which comes directly from the nectar of local flowers.

We also encourage you to try the Honey Challenge: taste our raw honey side by side with any store-bought “Grade A” honey. You’ll quickly see (and taste) the difference.
