OUR BEES
BRED, BORN, AND RAISED IN HAWAII
THE HUM OF BEES IS THE VOICE OF THE GARDEN
ELIZABETH LAWRENCE
The honeybees at Pualani Bee Farm are all descended from locally-bred queens acquired from Scott Nelson at Raw Hawaiian Honey Company (aka Hamakua Apiaries). We manage our honeybee colonies through natural means only, dedicating most of our beekeeping activities to the vigilant, ethical, and specialized care of our bees and their labor-intensive tasks. We harvest only when our bees produce a healthy surplus of the highest quality artisanal honey varietals and hive products.
The success of Pualani's honeybees in consistently presenting a variety of unique culinary treats, including 100% raw Hawaiian Tropical Wildflower, Ohia Lehua, and Christmas Berry varietals; specialty items such as sun-infused honey, comb honey, and chunk honey; fresh bee pollen; and raw propolis chunks; as well as aromatherapy products made with our hive's own beeswax, is a testament to the genetic quality of our locally-bred queen bees and their ever-industrious royal descendants. Pualani Bee Farm's "liquid gold" evokes the epitome of the hive-to-table experience!
