Blueberry

$ 11.00

This honey varietal derived primarily from blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum) nectar was harvested in mid-May from an apiary at Gibson Farms near Siletz, OR. It is available in 8-ounce (BPA-free) plastic squeeze bottles.

Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum) is widely planted in the Pacific Northwest for its delicious berries. The state of Oregon alone produces over 100 million pounds of blueberries annually. In a normal year, the bees won’t make any surplus blueberry honey, but in the last couple years, the conditions were good enough to make a small crop. 

The Siletz apiary is at Gibson Farms where the bees pollinate 20 acres of blueberry bushes in the early spring. The first bushes in the patch were planted in 1948, and the farm has been under the management of the same family for almost 70 years. Gibson Farms is surrounded by pastureland, riparian areas, and regenerating forest with significant populations of vine maple and scotch broom. 

Honey is never heated over natural hive temperatures, and we only filter it minimally, so it may include pollen, small wax particles, and the occasional bee bit. All natural honey will solidify eventually. To liquify, place the jar in a bowl of warm (not boiling) water. Our honeys are never flavored or infused with added ingredients. The varietal names indicate the primary nectar source plants the bees were foraging on at the time of honey production.  

If you intend to buy this honey as a gift, please include a note for the recipient at checkout.
