What Makes It Different
Most honey on store shelves has been heated and filtered until there's nothing left but sweetness. The enzymes are gone. The pollen is gone. The identity is gone.
Ours is different.
We bottle our honey raw and unfiltered, exactly as the bees made it. The enzymes stay intact. The pollen stays in. If you looked at it under a microscope, you'd know exactly where it came from.
Unfiltered doesn't mean unclean. We strain out the wax and debris, but we keep everything that makes honey good for you.
Place & Flavor
Our bees don't stay in one backyard. They travel for miles across North and East Texas, gathering nectar from whatever's blooming — wildflowers, trees, brush. They don't respect county lines, and neither does the honey.
A single jar holds nectar from thousands of flowers. That diversity is the point.
Wine folks have a word for how place shapes flavor — terroir. It means the taste comes from the land itself. The soil, the climate, the plants. Honey works the same way. Our honey tastes like North and East Texas because that's where it comes from. Mass-produced honey has had its terroir stripped out. Ours hasn't.
If you're after allergy benefits, diversity matters. You want exposure to a broad range of regional pollen, not just one flower from one backyard. Our bees bring back pollen from across the region. That's what ends up in the jar.
The Wonder of Bees
Spend any time with bees and you start to notice things.
The comb they build is perfect — hexagons, every single one, mathematically optimal for strength and storage. They don't use blueprints. They don't have a foreman. Thousands of bees, working together, building the same structure without a single meeting.
Look closer and you'll see the cells aren't all the same size. Smaller cells for worker bees. Larger ones for drones. Queen cells built only when needed, shaped differently, positioned deliberately.
The hive self-organizes. Every bee knows her role, and that role changes as she ages — nurse, builder, guard, forager. No one assigns the work. It just happens.
The precision of it all is hard to explain. The more you watch, the more you wonder how any of this is possible without a Creator.
Who We Are
We're not a factory. We're a family.
Every jar is bottled by our hands, labeled at our table, and sent out with care.
The Sills family started keeping bees in 2023. What began as curiosity became craft. We learned from the bees, and we're still learning — every season teaches us something new.
Our faith shapes how we approach this. We believe in doing things right, not just fast. In honesty. In gratitude for what God provides through the land and the bees. There's something about working with bees that makes you pay attention to things you'd otherwise miss.
From our hives to your home. That's the idea.
"Your words are like honey on my lips."— Psalm 119:103
The Future
Honey is where we started, but we're building something bigger — an artisan pantry. Small-batch. Handmade with care. Rooted in the same values as every jar of honey we bottle.
Texas wildflower honey infused with peppers. Sweet first, then heat. Good on biscuits, pizza, fried chicken, or anywhere you want a little fire.
Coming SoonHoney rested in bourbon barrels, absorbing flavor from the charred oak and the whiskey that soaked into the wood. No bourbon added — the barrel does the work. It takes time.
Coming SoonTahitian vanilla beans. Real time. Homemade and aged until it's ready. No shortcuts.
Coming SoonWe'll share more as these develop. Good things take time.
