Hood River, Oregon · Apiary & honey farm
Raw wildflower honey, comb honey and beeswax candles from hives we keep in the Hood River valley — poured, cut and jarred in small batches, the way the season allows.
01 · Honey
Our hives sit in the orchards and wildflower ground around Hood River. Wildflower honey is bottled raw straight from the frames, comb honey is cut in the wax the bees built, and the wax left over goes back into candles.
Bottled raw from the season's bloom, so each jar carries what the valley was doing that month.
Cut comb left in its own wax, for the people who want the whole thing.

02 · Beeswax candles
Beeswax keeps the scent of the hive with it — warm wax, a trace of wildflower honey, a little clover. We pour in short runs, so what sits on the shelf changes as the season does.
A flame that sits close and quiet, the way a hive sounds at dusk.
Warm wax and honey underneath, nothing sharp laid over the top.
Poured a few trays at a time, then left to firm and settle.
03 · Gift sets
Honey, comb and candles packed together and sent out with a card — the easiest way to hand someone a piece of the valley.
