Comb-ripened unpastuerized Honey (Light and Buckwheat), Beeswax Candles. We also have fresh garlic and parsley (both seasonal). About Us We have been producing local honey for over thirty years. Jim has also been a bee inspector for most of this time, and is a breeder of mite-resistant queen bees. Browse through our Products for Sale Practices (our standards for raising or making our products) Our honey comes from our own beeyards in the Eganville area, full of wildflowers and tree blossoms, far away from any farms with pesticides or GMO crops. Tanglewood honey is unpasteurized, and our bees are raised naturally. Only natural deterrents (formic acid, naturally occurring in bees and ants) are used to prevent bee mites, along with careful breeding of mite-resistant queen bees. An antibiotic is used in the fall to prevent 'foul brood', but this is totally broken down in two weeks, and honey is only extracted in the spring. We package our honey in re-useable, recycle-able glass jars.
