Our honey is pure, raw, and unfiltered, produced in small batches using sustainable beekeeping practices. We focus on preserving the natural nutrients, flavor, and integrity of the honey straight from the hive.
Where is Kettle Creek Apiary located?
We are located in Potter County, North Central Pennsylvania, often referred to as “God’s Country,” where our bees forage on diverse and natural nectar sources.
What is the difference between light honey and dark honey?
Light honey is mild and floral, made from summer blooms like clover and wildflowers. Dark honey is richer and more robust, coming from late-season nectar sources and containing higher levels of antioxidants and minerals.
Are your products all natural?
Yes. We specialize in clean, all-natural products made with responsibly sourced ingredients. Any preservatives used are minimal and clearly listed in the ingredients.
Do you heat or process your honey?
No. Our honey is raw and minimally processed to maintain its natural enzymes, nutrients, and flavor.
Why does the heat level vary in your hot honey?
Our hot honey is made using home-grown peppers, and natural variations in the peppers each season can affect the heat level. This makes every batch unique.
What are beeswax products used for?
Beeswax products like food wraps, boot and leather balm, and lotion bars offer eco-friendly, sustainable alternatives to plastic and chemical-based products while providing excellent natural protection and conditioning.
Are your personal care products safe for sensitive skin?
Many of our products are formulated for gentle and sensitive skin, including baby butter, eczema creams, and face creams. We always recommend checking ingredient lists for personal sensitivities.
How should I store honey and beeswax products?
Honey should be stored at room temperature, away from direct sunlight. Beeswax and personal care products should be kept in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness.
Do you offer seasonal or limited-batch products?
Yes. Some products, such as hot honey, smoked honey, and specialty blends, are seasonal and available only while supplies last.
Can I request or order special items?
Yes, please contact us with any special requests and we will do our best to accommodate your request.
