Raw Wildflower Honey
Beekeeper's Naturals sets the standard for purity in everyday honey by third-party testing for pesticides like glyphosate and neonicotinoids. Their wildflower honey is raw, enzymatic, and sourced from sustainable apiaries across North America.
Quality & Materials
100% raw wildflower honey. It is never heated or ultra-filtered, retaining beneficial pollen and propolis traces.
Evidence & Testing
While wildflower honey has less clinical focus than Manuka, this brand's commitment to 'Glyphosate Residue Free' certification is a significant safety benchmark.
Brand Transparency
B-Corp certified company. They provide clear information on their sourcing and testing protocols for environmental toxins.
Value Assessment
Excellent value for a high-purity, tested raw honey that can be used as a general sweetener without the premium Manuka price tag.
Why Not Alternatives?
Standard grocery store 'clover' honey is often a blend of honeys from multiple countries (including China) and is frequently contaminated with pesticides. Beekeeper's provides a clean, tested alternative that is accessible for daily use.
