And so, wildflower honey won in our poll

Let's talk a little about flower honey and how it is collected by bees

In the hills of Topanga, California, there's a magical time in May when wildflowers begin to bloom. The landscape is transformed into a sea of vibrant colors, and the air is filled with the sweet scent of nectar. It's during this time that the bees of Topanga get to work, collecting nectar from the wildflowers and transforming it into the delicious honey that we all know and love.

The bees of Topanga are a hardworking bunch, and they take their job of pollinating the wildflowers very seriously. As they flit from flower to flower, they collect the nectar using their long tongues and store it in a special sac called a honey stomach. Back at the hive, they regurgitate the nectar and pass it between bees, each adding their own enzymes and proteins to transform it into honey.

Wildflower honey is a special type of honey that's created by bees that pollinate a variety of wildflowers. In Topanga, this can include flowers like California poppies, lupines, and wild mustard. The result is a honey that's unique in flavor and color, with each batch reflecting the specific flowers that were in bloom at the time.

Topanga Quality Honey is one of the few remaining beekeepers in the area, and they take great care to produce a high-quality wildflower honey. They harvest the honey in small batches, ensuring that each jar is filled with the purest, raw, unfiltered honey. The result is a honey that's bursting with flavor and loaded with health benefits.
