About Mountain Valley Beekeeping
Mountain Valley is a small family-run beekeeping operation located at the northernmost tip of New Zealand’s South Island, in Mount Richmond Forest Park.
The father, Mary, manages the hives and bees, while the mother, Nikki, handles the bottling process.
"Good honey requires the perfect environment, healthy bees, and weather. Other than that, it's best to leave it as natural as possible," Mary says.
Their honey is delivered in its purest form without high-heat processing or filtration, preserving the natural flavor, aroma, minerals, amino acids, and enzymes.
The particles visible in the honey are natural beeswax, which is safe to eat.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the honey tested for residual pesticides?
We test for residual pesticides on-site, and the test results are "zero".
How long can honey be stored?
Honey is known as a natural preservative and generally does not spoil. However, essential amino acids in honey begin to decrease after four years, so we recommend consuming it within four years of the harvest date.
Why are there differences in the condition of the honey? Does the taste change?
First of all, the local weather, the quality of the flowering, and the temperature during storage can affect the taste and texture of the honey.
Honey that has not been artificially processed is alive.
The differences in taste and texture are all the result of nature. Please enjoy it with peace of mind.
