Wee Bee HoneyWee Bee Honey is a family-owned apiary whose beekeeping story reaches back to 1892, when Noah DeMuth bought his first hives in Pembroke, New York. Now in its fifth generation, the family runs colonies between New York and Florida and is known for carefully handled raw honey that goes from its own hives to hand-packed jars. The operation avoids chemicals near its bees and supports bee research through a portion of its proceeds.COWLESVILLE, NY
Honey Run ApiariesWhat began as a hobby in 2000 has grown into Honey Run Apiaries, a Delphos-based beekeeping business with more than 200 hives. Since moving from its garage to a 5,000-square-foot facility in 2010, the company has combined hands-on apiary work with a wood shop and classroom, serving beekeepers through queen-rearing nucs and equipment made in-house.DELPHOS, OH
