What’s Inside?

  • Spring Honey (11oz): Pure, raw, minimally filtered; made by bees from wildflowers, black locust, fruit trees, and lavender blossoms at Chesterhaven Beach Farm in Maryland
  • Star K Kosher Certified: Meets kosher standards
  • Single-Origin, Maryland Eastern Shore: Harvested during the brief spring bloom period when early-season flowers produce their most fragrant nectar

Why This Spring Honey?

  • Actually Floral: Not perfume-floral. Pollen-floral. The kind that tastes like walking through a field in May, not like a candle aisle.
  • Farm-Specific: Every jar comes from one farm—Kara's bees, Kara's flowers, Kara's harvest. No blending, no mystery sourcing.
  • May Crystallize: Raw honey does this. It's supposed to. Warm the jar gently under hot water and it goes back to liquid.
  • Small Batch Only: Spring happens once a year. The honey gets harvested in small batches during that window, and when it's gone, it's gone.
  • Bright, Not Bland: Golden color, flowing texture, that energetic sweetness that makes boring breakfasts less boring.

  • Free shipping on orders $85+
  • Ships Monday-Thursday within 1-2 business days

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.

Ingredients

Pure, Raw, Minimally Filtered Spring Blossom Honey

Why This Raw Honey Is Our Best-Seller

Our raw honey from Maryland's early spring harvest represents the vibrant awakening of the season. Unlike standard varieties, this pure raw honey captures the bright, complex nectar from early-season blooms when flowers produce their most fragrant offerings. As the farm's beekeeper and founder, I carefully time harvests to preserve natural enzymes and the delicate floral notes that make this variety so special.

The unique terroir of Chesterhaven Beach Farm, combined with small-batch production, ensures each jar offers an authentic taste of Maryland's natural landscape during its most beautiful season.

What Makes It Different

Unlike mass-produced varieties, this raw honey stands apart with remarkable characteristics:

Flavor Profile: Experience brightly floral sweetness with distinctive pollen-like notes and delicate floral notes that create a vibrant, energetic tasting experience. The mild flavor comes from diverse floral sources including black locust trees, wildflowers, autumn olive, and spring blossom nectar.

Texture: Enjoy the smooth, flowing consistency that speaks to premium production methods and the preservation of natural enzymes.

Color: Admire its beautiful golden hue that reflects the sunshine and vitality of springtime blooms.

Natural Crystallization: As pure raw honey, it may naturally crystallize over time—a sign of quality and authenticity. Simply warm gently to re-liquify and restore its liquid state.

The Story Behind Each Jar

At Chesterhaven Beach Farm, the journey begins as nature awakens from winter. My honey bees venture from their hives to collect nectar from the farm's diverse early spring blossoms—wildflowers bursting with color, fragrant black locust trees, blossoming fruit trees, autumn olive, and aromatic lavender. This spring blossom honey captures the fleeting season in every jar.

I hand-harvest the honey in small, seasonal batches during the harvest season, ensuring that each jar captures the essence of Maryland's Eastern Shore. This careful approach preserves the health benefits of raw honey, including its natural enzymes and authentic character.

As a seasonal Royale item available only in small batches, this local treasure has become our best-selling variety. It makes an impressive gift for discerning food lovers or a special addition to your own pantry.
