Bee' N Love Honey
The honey Toni started keeping bees for: local honey for her three boys. The same honey she stirs into her own coffee and tea. Small harvests from a few healthy hives, bottled by hand.

Honey the way bees make it
One ingredient
Honey. That's the whole label. No syrups, no blends, no additives.
Local flowers
Our bees forage around Texarkana, so the flavor is a taste of this corner of Texas.
Bees first
We leave the bees plenty for themselves and only harvest the extra.
Small batch
A handful of hives, a short season, every jar filled by Toni.
How a jar comes together
The bees go foraging
Spring and summer blooms around the hives fill the comb with nectar.
They make it honey
The bees fan the nectar down into thick honey and cap each cell with wax.
Toni pulls the extra frames
Only capped, ripe frames the colony can spare. The bees keep the rest for winter.
Spun out
The wax caps come off and the frames go for a spin in the extractor. Honey flies out, the comb goes back to the bees.
Settled and bottled
It rests in the buckets, then pours straight from the gate into the bottle.
A spoonful goes a long way
In coffee & tea
Toni's favorite. Stir it in while it's hot.
On warm toast
Or biscuits, cornbread, pancakes. You know the drill.
With cheese
A drizzle over a cheese board, with a few pecans on the side.
In your baking
Swap some of the sugar for honey for a softer, richer bake.
Beeswax & goat's milk goods
Lip balm, creams and lotion made alongside the honey. The shop is closed while Toni makes the next batch, so tap "Notify me" on anything you want.
When is honey available?
Honey is harvested once the bees have more than they need, usually late spring into summer. Supply is small and goes fast, so the waitlist hears first.
My honey went cloudy or solid. Is it bad?
Not at all. Real honey crystallizes naturally over time. Set the jar in a bowl of warm (not boiling) water and stir until it's runny again.
How should I store it?
Lid on, at room temperature, out of direct sun. No need to refrigerate. Honey keeps for a very long time.
Can I pick it up locally?
Yes. Choose pickup in Texarkana at checkout or in your order notes, and Toni will arrange a time with you.
Does local honey help with allergies?
It's the reason Toni started: all three of her boys have bad allergies, and plenty of families swear by a daily spoonful of local honey. The research is still mixed, so think of it as a delicious thing to try rather than a treatment, and keep taking whatever your doctor recommends.
Is honey okay for babies?
No. Please don't give honey of any kind to children under 12 months old.
