Honey is a sweet, thick liquid made by honeybees. The bees collect nectar from flowers and bring it back to the hive. Once inside, they repeatedly consume, digest and expel the nectar which eventually turns into honey. It serves as stored food for the bees, and a delicious treat for us. The aroma, colour and taste of the honey largely depends on the types of flowers the bees visit. All our honey is collected from local Ontario hives. Honey is extremely healthy too, and rich in bioactive plant compounds and antioxidants. It also has a much lower glycemic index than sugar, which means it won’t increase your blood sugar and insulin levels as much.
