Much of our success at From the Hive is due to our amazing honey bees. These resilient creatures produce the main ingredient, raw honey, found in all our beauty products.
Unpasteurized honey offers several notable health benefits, which can be explored in many credible publications online. Two of our favorite natural ingredients in raw honey that significantly contribute to general health are bee propolis and bee pollen. These powerhouses possess anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticancer properties. So, when you use any of our beauty products, you’re carrying a small part of their world and hard work with you!
The first attached picture shows some of our hives on a somewhat warm late February day during a mid-winter supplement feeding visit. As we snowshoed in, we immediately noticed signs of life. Even more activity was evident when we lifted the top to feed.
The second picture was taken yesterday afternoon during a late visit. Reflecting on that moment filled Dawn and me with warmth and contentment. It certainly looks and sounds like they’ve beaten Old Man Winter once again!
