✦ Woodbridge, Virginia ✦
Raw pure local wildflower honey and handcrafted beeswax goods, made with care by a beekeeper who tends every hive by hand.
10 Colonies · Woodbridge, VA · Since 2021
Tending the hives, one colony at a time.
I started keeping bees in May 2021 with a simple love for pollinators and a backyard in Woodbridge, Virginia. What began as one hive has grown to ten colonies — each one managed by hand, inspected with care, and treated with the respect these remarkable creatures deserve.
Every jar of honey, every tin of paw balm, every lip balm tube starts with wax and honey from my own hives. No middleman. No bulk buying. Just a beekeeper who knows exactly where every ingredient comes from because she harvested it herself.
I'm working toward a homestead property in rural Virginia or West Virginia — more land, more hives, more room to grow the apiary into what it's meant to be. This shop is the beginning of that journey.
Our German Shepherd, born January 2024. Every batch of dog paw balm is tested and approved by Günther before a single tin ships. If he doesn't like it, it doesn't leave the house.

Our wildflower honey is harvested once a year from our ten Woodbridge colonies. Raw, unfiltered, and never blended with outside honey. The color, flavor, and crystallization pattern changes each season depending on what our bees are foraging — that variety is the point.
Available in four sizes to suit every use — from a 2oz sampler to a 16oz working jar. Every bottle carries the same label, the same provenance, the same beekeeper behind it.

Beekeeping
Virginia entered spring 2026 with 67% of the state under drought conditions. Here is what that means for our hives, our honey harvest, and what you can expect this summer.
Products
Our dog paw balm isn't just made for dogs — it's made with one specific dog in mind. Meet Günther and learn how we develop and test every formula.
The Homestead
Retiring in 2028 with a plan — 2 to 5 acres, a pole barn honey house, 25 colonies, an orchard, and more lavender than any one beekeeper probably needs.
