WHO WE ARE
Beekeepers, Honey producers.
We are third, and into the fourth, generation of beekeepers with no signs of stopping any time soon.
At 1200 hives and growing we are a fairly large commercial operation for our area, but quite small compared to some of our beekeeping friends in Alberta and Saskatchewan and even smaller compared to our colleagues in New Zealand, Arataki Honey Ltd who operate over 20000 hives. One major difference in operations is the lack of pollination contracts in Manitoba meaning we are strictly honey producers, so we live and die, as the saying goes, by the fortunes the Lord and land offer. The truth is, we farm because we like the lifestyle and the connection to nature, not because we plan to get rich…although that wouldn’t hurt either.
We are a family farm operation running as an incorporated partnership. Located in Kleefeld, Manitoba where it has been for over 35 years.
DIRECTIONS
During the Summer, we sell prepackaged honey and fill personal containers out of the Honey House. That is the third driveway from the corner and it’s a large aluminum sided building. Ring the doorbell for assistance.
In the off-season we sell honey out of the Farmhouse, which is the first driveway from the corner (33004 Driveway marker.)
It is a good idea to call or email ahead of time to make sure someone will be around to help you.
PRICES
Our annual honey crop harvest usually starts in mid to late July and we try to have fresh honey available to fill into your own containers at the farm location in Kleefeld from the start of harvest until September. We also pre-fill containers for your convenience and they are available from the start of the harvest throughout the year, or until we are sold out.
