Janeta’s Hobby Honey
Welcome to our family’s small labor of love for the planet.
This RAW, unheated, gravity-filtered honey is from our own hives, which we keep by a little farm pond near acres of timber and wildflowers in Louisa County.
Every year is a little different for our apiary-adventures. We harvested over Labor Day weekend 2024 – about 13 gallons from 3 of our current 4 hives – one hive was allowed to keep all its work, as it needed a new queen mid-summer and was slow to start, so will need the honey for overwintering! Our honey is gravity-filtered and bottled without use of any heat. A warm water bath will get it back to liquid state if that’s how you like it, or scoop it out in crystallized form too!
We are making jarred honey available for local pick-up at our downtown Iowa City office or at Downward Dog Yoga at 115 5th St. in Coralville during their open hours. We are not mailing our honey.
Pint jars are $15 each.
Half-pint jars are $10.
30% of all proceeds is being donated to the Shelter House in Iowa City.
Purchases can be made on-site, or pre-ordered here and we will get it ready for pick-up.
