Raw Unpasturized Honey is
Yet delicously simple
Honey contains nearly 200 individual substances. Much of this (as much as 75%) is comprised of both simple sugars (monosaccharides – fructose and glucose mainly) but also contains more complex sugars. As the bees bring nectar back from the flowers, they introduce enzymes to help break down these complex sugars and as the active enzyme (namely invertase) still exists, honey in a jar is constantly evolving and sugars are being transformed from one form to another.
Honey also contains many proteins – mainly from the pollen that is brought back with the nectar, but wild yeasts also contribute to this count.

Our beekeeper Dave works solely with Buckfast bees. They were the bees that he initially started working with, and after working at other beekeeping outfits including an Italian breeding program in New Zealand and trialing a variety of other bee races, Dave kept coming back as you ‘just couldn’t beat em’. It was their winter hardiness, spring build up, temperament, and honey production that made them easy to fall in love with and become the bees of choice.
The bees are of Buckfast decent, but are locally mated and then carefully selected each year for our 100% Ontario Nucleus Colonies.
For honey bees and beekeepers in Ontario, September is one of the most important transition months of the year.
The first jars of our 2026 raw honey are here. The supply is small for now. More will arrive as we continue harvesting and bottling over the coming weeks.
