Local HoneyThe Bay Area Bee Company processes local honey and helps happy bees and hives. They have hives all over the greater Bay Area and make small local batches. This is the Bay Area blend, and is especially good for folks suffering from allergies locally. This honey's maximum heating is 105°F – 110°F. It often crystallizes in the winter (depending on type of flora), so it is reheated at different times throughout the year. This temperature range is still considered raw, because the average bee hive temperature is about 95°F – 110°F. Non-raw honey is typically heated to 160°F to make it flow faster and more easily. This local honey is not filtered, a fairly wide mesh strainer is used to strain out occasional wax pieces or bee body parts. Using a strainer rather than a filter allows the good pollen compounds to flow through with the honey into the jar. OriginHives Around The Bay AreaIngredientsLocal Honey
