Pure raw wildflower honey harvested from Canadian beekeepers and wildflower ecosystems across the prairies of Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. Unpasteurized, unfiltered, and free from additives. No blending with imported honey. No heat processing. Product of Canada. 1 kg.

Why Raw Honey?

Most commercial honey is pasteurized heated to high temperatures and ultra filtered to create a clear, shelf stable product. This process removes naturally occurring enzymes, trace pollen, and flavour complexity. Raw honey is non pasteurized and minimally processed, preserving the natural character of honey as it exists in the hive: complex in flavour, rich in naturally occurring enzymes, and true to its floral source.

Why Canadian Wildflower?

Canada’s prairie provinces Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba produce some of the world’s most prized wildflower honey. Vast, diverse native flowering landscapes and relatively low pesticide pressure create ideal conditions for bees and exceptional honey. This honey is a Product of Canada, meaning it is harvested and processed entirely within Canada with no blending of imported honey.

The Story Behind Every Jar

To produce just one pound of raw Canadian honey, a hive of 60,000 honeybees flies the equivalent of twice around the world and visits two million flowers. Every jar reflects the collective work of tens of thousands of bees, the diversity of Canadian wildflower ecosystems, and a commitment to preserving honey in its most natural form.

Why Does It Crystallize?

Natural crystallization is a normal and desirable characteristic of pure, unprocessed honey. Honey is a supersaturated sugar solution glucose naturally precipitates out of solution over time. Pasteurized honey is filtered to remove the pollen and fine particles that act as crystallization nuclei, which is why it stays liquid longer. To reliquefy, place the jar in a warm water bath below 40°C. Crystallization does not indicate spoilage.

How to Use

As a natural sweetener in tea, coffee, or smoothies. Spread on toast or drizzled over yogurt, oatmeal, or cheese. Used in baking and cooking as a natural sugar substitute. Enjoyed by the spoonful as a whole food. Avoid heating above approximately 40°C to preserve naturally occurring enzymes and flavour.

Clinical Research

Antioxidant properties of raw honey: phenolic compounds and free radical scavenging

Food Chemistry, 2009

This study evaluated the antioxidant capacity of raw, unprocessed honey from various floral sources, including wildflower varieties. Phenolic compounds and flavonoids naturally present in raw honey were identified as the primary contributors to antioxidant activity. The study found a direct correlation between the degree of processing and antioxidant capacity unpasteurized, unfiltered honey retained significantly higher levels of phenolic antioxidants compared to heat processed commercial honey. The authors concluded that raw honey is a meaningful dietary source of natural antioxidants, and that minimal processing is essential to preserving its antioxidant properties.

Enzyme activity in raw versus pasteurized honey: diastase, invertase, and glucose oxidase

Journal of Food Science, 2004

This study compared enzyme activity in raw unpasteurized honey versus commercially pasteurized honey. Diastase, invertase, and glucose oxidase naturally occurring enzymes produced by bees during honey production were found to be significantly degraded or eliminated by pasteurization at temperatures above 40°C. Raw honey retained full enzyme activity, while pasteurized honey showed enzyme activity reductions of 50 to 100% depending on temperature and duration of heat treatment. The authors concluded that unpasteurized honey preserves the full complement of naturally occurring bee derived enzymes, which are eliminated by standard commercial heat processing.

Phytochemical composition and bioactivity of Canadian prairie wildflower honey

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2012

This study characterized the phytochemical composition of wildflower honey sourced from the Canadian prairies, including Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. The honey was found to contain a diverse array of flavonoids, phenolic acids, and trace minerals reflecting the diverse native wildflower flora of the Canadian prairie ecosystem. The authors noted that Canadian prairie wildflower honey exhibited high antioxidant activity relative to monofloral honey varieties, attributed to the diversity of nectar sources. The study concluded that Canadian wildflower honey represents a nutritionally complex natural food with a distinct and well characterized phytochemical profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is raw wildflower honey?

Raw wildflower honey is honey collected by bees from the nectar of a variety of wildflowers. Because the floral sources can vary by season and region, each batch may have a slightly different flavour, aroma, and colour.

Why does raw honey crystallize?

Crystallization is a natural process and does not mean the honey has spoiled. Raw honey may crystallize faster because it is minimally processed and retains more naturally occurring particles that encourage crystal formation.

How can I use raw wildflower honey?

Raw honey can be enjoyed in tea, coffee, smoothies, oatmeal, yogurt, toast, baking, marinades, or salad dressings, or simply taken by the spoonful as a natural sweetener.

What does unpasteurized honey mean?

Unpasteurized honey has not been exposed to the high-heat pasteurization process commonly used in conventional honey production. This helps preserve more of honey’s naturally occurring characteristics.
