Down to Earth Raw Honey

Description

Down to Earth Farm is located in Brownfield, Alberta. This area has been home to six generations of family that have grown food for a living. Since 2005 we've aimed to return to those roots—to produce food that our great grandparents would recognize and appreciate.
Our philosophy is simple: as little human intervention as possible. We believe that nature has an amazing capacity to produce. It provides an abundance, and if we pay attention, we can be a part of that abundance. Some of our farming practices come from new thought-leaders and personal heroes. These influences include people who are developing (or rediscovering) permaculture like Wendell Berry, Gene Logsdon, and Joel Salatin of Polyface Farms. These and more offer a tremendous openness and generosity in their practices—something we hope to mirror at Down to Earth. Our farm is a family farm and we're 'all hands on deck' people. That means when there is work to be done everyone is involved. It's not always easy, but we love that each member of our family has a role in our team. RAW and UNFILTERED HONEY We work with the bees to bring you RAW AND UNFILTERED HONEY. We bring honey supers (open wooden boxes that bees store honey in) in from our bee yards, extract the honey, strain out any large particulates, and pour the honey into containers. We only have our hives on pasture land. The diverse range of plants and flowers give the honey an incredible flavour and creamy white color! Honey contains beneficial minerals and enzymes, so we take extra care to not tamper with it. This means that we do not pasteurize (heat to sterilize) our honey, which reduces healthful properties and changes taste and colour.
