Springtime in California means bloom time. And with flowers and blossoms come bees. With rich and diverse flora, our state produces some of tastiest honey anywhere. Check out these honey products from across California, all with their own unique flavor profile. 

California Sage Honey

Malibu Honey sources their honey from bees that forage in the Santa Monica and San Gabriel Mountain ranges. Much of this area is in National Parks and Forests and far from intensive agriculture and all of the pollution and pesticides that come with that. Sage is also known as ‘California Gold’, and it gives honey a lighter flavor. 12 oz. for $13.99.


Biointensive Native Wildflower Honey

This SoCal honey is antioxidant-rich, with powerful plant compounds from avocados, citrus and macadamias. The bees forage on wild sage, rosemary, lavender, Australian wattle and eucalyptus giving it a unique fragrance and a deep, delicious taste. 100% raw unfiltered honey with nothing added but love and sunshine. 19.5 oz. for $37.


Avocado Blossom Honey

Avocado blossom honey is one of the most unique California varietal honeys. This beautiful extra dark honey from California Honey Co. is smooth with a subtle earthiness that reminds us of molasses, but better! 12 oz. for $11.99.


Lavender Infused

Pure Honey Co. soaks organic food grade lavender grow on their farm with raw wildflower honey to give the honey the special essence of calming lavender. The infused lavender honey is sweet and earthy with light floral undertones of lavender. 12 oz. for $11.
