The Honey Collective is a cooperative of small-scale beekeepers working together to steward healthy honeybee populations and provide consumers with a trusted source of raw, unfiltered, single-origin honey.
We are based in Nashville, TN.
Our Values
Community
We are a community of likeminded, small-scale beekeepers who realized that by working together, we would be better able to steward thriving apiaries and provide consumers with a reliable source of locally-sourced, responsibly-produced, exceptional honey. Because of our commitment to community, we operate as a cooperative.
Responsibility
Our beekeepers manage hives with sustainable practices that help ensure the long-term wellbeing of their apiaries. Our honey comes from honeybees that forage wildly and are locally-adapted. We avoid relocation and sugar syrup, we practice Integrated Pest Management, and we only harvest excess honey, leaving colonies plenty of honey for overwintering.
Quality
For the average consumer, it can be hard to know the origin story of the honey they buy in the supermarket. We maintain a commitment to working with small-scale apiaries whom we know and trust. In doing so, we are able to guarantee that our honey is always raw, always unfiltered, always traceable, and most of all, always exceptional in flavor!
What We Do
Exceptional Honey
The Honey Collective sources high-quality honey in small batches from beekeepers who are members of The Honey Collective cooperative. Our honey always comes from hives we know are responsibly and ethically managed.
Hive Management
We provide hive management services to individuals and businesses who are interested in raising honeybees but do not have the time it takes to manage hives successfully. Packages are based on apiary size.
Apiary Setup
Bringing one's beekeeping dreams to life can feel like an overwhelming process. Trust us, we know from experience. We help make the process of getting started easy for aspiring beekeepers like you.
