CARLISLE HONEYRick Reault, Beekeeper, Founder/CEO of Carlisle Honey & New England Beekeeping Supplies | Eat LOCAL HoneyMike Graney started beekeeping in 1997 with a single hive in his local community garden in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston. Ten years and hundreds of pounds of honey later, he's still at it, quietly keeping honeybees in various sites throughout the city. | Labyrinth ApiariesThe future of honeybees does not solely rest on skillful beekeeping; rather, it relies on smart, well-integrated horticulture design. As beekeepers, we cannot just set up our hives and hope for the best. We must advocate for a more responsible and sustainable system of agriculture. Labyrinth Apiaries, which produces treatment free honey, is proud to participate in permaculture and regenerative farming projects in the Northeast. |

Anarchy ApiariesLet’s help each other change the sheets on the deathbed of industrial agriculture. Promise yourself to slow down when you eat and savor your food. Support a network of bioregional wisdom, and keep it simple enough to teach a child. What we teach our children is the next world to be. A place where the wild things grow. - Sam Comfort | Cross CreakSituated in one of the last refuges of old Florida. Our bees feed on thousands of acres of virgin St. Johns River Water Management District land, where the flowing waters of Lochloosa Lake feed into Orange Lake and where the plants that were born to the land produce the true Florida honeys. We spent over three years working with our Department of Agriculture to see Florida adopt the first honey standard in the nation. | McFarline ApiaryCompletely free of all treatments including chemical miticides, pesticides, antibiotics, essential oils, acids or any other medications. This ensures the bees that survive do so based on their own resilience and attributes and not because a selective pressure was removed via treatments. My vision is to have a diverse gene pool of productive, disease and mite resistant, gentle bees well adapted to the northern seasons that can supply surplus bees, honey and propolis to share with the community. |
