Yogurt or kefir and honey, hard cheese and honey, nuts and honey, warm plant-based milk and honey, fruits and honey, brussels sprouts roasted with honey, you name it, we love it with honey. So, we know honey and "Honey by the Bay" is it. We love the small batches, and how the high quality stays consistent while the taste has a natural variation throughout the year. We are now very loyal customers, and only buy honey products elsewhere if Honey by the Bay is out of stock.

Our students, who are from 2-6 years old, recognize him because he volunteers his time to tell them about the bees and their "bee-havior," which is so fun! We really value natural sciences because children learn best through interaction and what Dave brings to us through all his interactions is a way to teach the students less fear and more respect for nature. Also, as a property owner, Dave helped us save a hive when they tried to take over our roof and his methods were kind and preserving, instead of destructive, and we really valued that! We love Dave and can't say it enough:-)

From the owner: Now taking deposits for Spring 2019 Nucleus Colonies. I'm producing a limited number of nucs for a…read moremid-April pick-up. Like most queen breeders worth their salt, I choose queens to breed from based on low mite counts, mite resilience, gentleness, honey production, longevity, etc. Nucs will consist of 5 frames of bees. Frames will be Langstroth Deeps made of wood (Mann Lake) with plastic foundation. All frames will be from wax drawn in 2018. Two to three frames will consist of brood in all stages, a feed frame of honey/pollen, and either a foundation frame or an empty comb frame. If managed correctly, they will give you a honey crop your first year. All queens will be grafted from my best queens of 2018, and are guaranteed to be mated and laying solid patterns. With package prices increasing yearly, a nuc is a better choice than ever. Quicker build up, bees that are guaranteed not to abscond (does happen), and a guaranteed laying queen. Bees will be sold in temporary cardboard nuc boxes. Pickup location is still to be determined. I can possibly deliver for a fee if ordering more than 10 nucs. To secure your nuc, please head over to my website to place a $50 non-refundable deposit. Email or call with any questions. If you're on social media, you can check out my beekeeping journey on instagram. I'm @statestreethoney Thanks, Todd

Do NOT buy bees from this 'company' Worst treatment of bees…read morethat I've seen in six years. Instead of receiving an established four frame Nuc this is what he sent. Two empty frames and two 3/4 full frames. No established brood, no stores of honey or pollen. Almost half of the bees had died in transit and the smell of decaying bees was overwhelming. Instead of being sent in a sturdy wooden box they were shipped in a single wall plastic box that did nothing to insulate or protect the bees in transit. His shipment was also delayed to five days due to poor packaging. His voice message box is constantly full and he very seldom answers his phone. Emails also goes days without being answered. So overwhelmingly sad for the bees that suffered at the hands of this company.

They also have different honey sourced from different areas like Fairfield, Hayward, Niles, San Leandro, etc, and each have their own unique taste!

I'll use it in a recipe or making salad dressing but right out to eat with the spoon would be a no way. I bought the dark honey at Heather Farm Maker Faire. I was stunned at tasting how good it tasted alone. The huge bonus is I have severe seasonal allergies. I've tried many local honey's before. This one works at the get go. I was having a sneezing attack from being outside. I didn't take the honey yet, but when I did my sneezing and runny nose stopped - dead on the spot! That's a wow. And the little dry jar of bee pollen I put in my hot drinks works too. They have other flavors/types too which now I'd really like to try. The trick now is to keep being able to find them to keep it in stock!
