Varietal & Local Raw Honeys. Strained, never filtered, to retain local pollen.

Welcome to Lee's Bees Honey

Lee’s Bees Honey is a small apiary located on the Cape Blanco Peninsula of Southern Oregon. We have approximately 180 hives and offer a variety of different Oregon honeys. As a rule, we routinely bottle Meadowfoam honey, which we get from our hives in the Camas Valley, and our local Mixed Flower honey, which comes from right here on the peninsula. If the weather is right, and the honey gods smile on us, we can also be assured a crop of either Blackberry, Raspberry, White Clover or Blueberry, all raw, all Oregon, all local.

All of our honeys are raw, which means that the honey is as close to nature as it gets; it has not been heated above 115 degrees so that all of the enzymes and volatile chemical compounds stay intact. It has been strained, but not filtered so that all the pollen, the wax particles, and the propolis bits remain in the honey; the result being that our honey is better for you and has flavor layers and subtleties that simply cannot be found in grocery store honey.

We produce a solid lotion “Bee Bar” and a Beeswax Hand & Body Lotion through an FDA approved company using our own beeswax and according to our private recipe. It is a wonderful solution for hands used to hard work! Fishermen, loggers, mothers, kids and dads love them!

We are happy to ship anywhere in the world (we have honey in France, Switzerland, Germany, and Transylvania!) and will package gifts for all occasions to your specifications. Corporate inquiries are always welcome. Our online shopping is limited to the USA (and we're still working on it) so feel free to contact us for big orders or for world wide shipping.

Explore our site and enter the world of honey as nature meant it to "bee".

Blamed for Bee Collapse, Monsanto Buys Leading Bee Research Firm

Monsanto, the massive biotechnology company being blamed for contributing to the dwindling bee population, has bought up one of the leading bee collapse research organizations. Recently banned from Poland with one of the primary reasons being that the company’s genetically modified corn may be devastating the dying bee population, it is evident that Monsanto is under serious fire for their role in the downfall of the vital insects. It is therefore quite apparent why Monsanto bought one of the largest bee research firms on the planet.

It can be found in public company reports hosted on mainstream media that Monsanto scooped up the Beeologics firm back in September 2011. During this time the correlation between Monsanto’s GM crops and the bee decline was not explored in the mainstream, and in fact it was hardly touched upon until Polish officials addressed the serious concern amid the monumental ban. Owning a major organization that focuses heavily on the bee collapse and is recognized by the USDA for their mission statement of “restoring bee health and protecting the future of insect pollination” could be very advantageous for Monsanto.
