The One Everyone is Obsessed With
There’s a three-week window in spring when the world decides to show off. Black locust trees, wildflowers, fruit blossoms, lavender—it all explodes at once on Chesterhaven Beach Farm. The bees? They go into overdrive. The honey? It tastes like sunshine and flowers had a love child.
This is the honey. The one people text their friends about. The one that sells out before you can say “save me a jar.” The one that gets reordered before the lid’s even sticky.
It’s floral, but not in a “grandma’s perfume” way. Sweet, but not cavity-inducing. Bright, like the first day you ditch your winter coat. People lose their minds over it. They drizzle it on cheese, swirl it into yogurt, or just eat it straight off the spoon at midnight. (No judgment. We’ve all been there.)
Here’s the thing: nobody else does what we do. This isn’t just honey—it’s our honey. We grow the plants. We choose what blooms. We’ve planted over 500 lavender plants, 30 acres of clover, 20 acres of wildflowers, and we’ve got groves of pears, apples, and walnuts. All of it is for the bees. They’re the real stars here.
The farm? Kara gets to live here and make magic happen. She times the harvest to catch those spring blooms at their absolute peak—when the nectar’s fragrant, the pollen’s fresh, and the bees are buzzing like they’ve had too much coffee.
Small batches. Hand-harvested. Nothing added. Just pure, unfiltered Maryland sunshine in a jar.
This is the honey you didn’t know you needed. Until now.
How People Actually Use It
- With Strong Cheese: Blue, aged cheddar, sharp goat cheese—the floral notes cut through the funk in the best way.
- Over Greek Yogurt: Especially if you're tired of eating plain yogurt like it's a punishment.
- In Chamomile Tea: Or lavender tea. Or any tea that benefits from tasting like spring instead of just hot water.
- On Toast, Biscuits, Scones: The obvious things. They work.
- In Salad Dressing: Honey, mustard, olive oil, vinegar. The floral thing plays well with greens.
- With Fruit: Strawberries, sliced peaches, anything that's already sweet but could be sweeter.
- Straight: Spoon optional.
