Chasing Honey Farm at Griffin Corners
Chasing Honey Farm at Griffin Corners
We are a honey farm co-op, a way to craft and sell super-premium, local, raw honey. The apiary (or bee yard) is co-located at Griffin Corners, our boutique farm in the Central Catskill Mountains of Upstate New York. Our hives are treatment-free and we specialise in pure, local, raw, honey that is made without the use of chemicals, pesticides, fungicides, miticides, fumigants, commercial pollination practices, or artificial feeding of established colonies. We allow our bees to develop a natural resistance to the pest and disease factors that plague commercial honey farmers and avoid the use harsh chemicals to create a false sense of immunity in the hive.
We aim for quality over quantity by using natural beekeeping practices and producing a world-class product without poisoning the nearby watershed with agricultural runoff.
It's not what we do to our honey that makes it so special, it's what we don't do that is the hallmark of our super-premium honey products.
Sweet deal, right?
