Texas Killer Bee Honey
Regular price
$12.00
Size
8 oz and 1 pound of 100% raw and Pure Wildflower Honey from Texas made by killer bees.
This honey produced by the Killer Bees is a medium amber color and is incredibly rich and smooth. It is simply a delicious honey.
Killer Bees or Africanized Bees were created in an experiment in Brazil in the late 1950's by hybridizing European Honey Bees with African Bees. As it so often happens with these experiments, after discovering the new hybrids were extremely aggressive - they escaped! Now decades later they have made their way through South America and into the southern states of the USA.
SUGGESTED USE: This rich honey is delicious, whether on yogurt, toast, muffins. We always include it on our cheese platters when company is over, because who doesn't want to take a walk on the wild side.
BEE SMART: A single killer bee is no deadlier than any other honeybee and they are in fact smaller than other honeybees, have shorter wings and carry less venom. However when they feel threatened they attack en masse.

WE'RE ON A MISSION...
Real Beekeepers. Real Honey. Taste The Difference.
My beekeeping journey began over 12 years ago with my oldest daughter begging for a dog, which led us to getting baby chickens instead, then honey bees were added to our urban backyard farm and the rest is history. We're urban NYC beekeepers with a mission to help save the bees and other pollinators by donating to organizations that help save the bees and establish local pollinator gardens. Bees have been declining at an alarming rate which can impact the global food supply as bees are essential in pollination. Our honey is pure and raw and sourced from either our own local hives or small apiaries, like us, from around the country. We believe in sustainable beekeeping, supporting small local beekeepers who in turn work with small local family farms to help pollinate their crops and bring you real, delicious honey.
