Where does Mike & Niki's honey come from?

Every jar comes from our own apiaries across Silicon Valley – Campbell, San Jose, Santa Clara, Los Gatos, Sunnyvale, Half Moon Bay, Carneros, and more. Mike is our head beekeeper. We harvest, bottle, and label everything ourselves at our Campbell facility – the last farm in Campbell.

Does local honey actually help with allergies?

Raw local honey contains trace amounts of the same pollen your immune system reacts to. Many of our customers use a daily spoonful from their own zip code starting weeks before allergy season as part of their routine. We don't make medical claims, but 13 years of repeat customers tells us something.

What's the difference between varietal and wildflower honey?

Wildflower honey reflects whatever the bees foraged in a given season – a snapshot of that place and time. Varietal honey comes from apiaries placed near a dominant bloom: orange blossom, eucalyptus, sage. Different flavors, different bodies, different colors – same real honey.

Is your honey raw and unfiltered?

Yes. We don't pasteurize, we don't ultra-filter, and we don't blend with anything we didn't harvest. Just strained to remove wax and bee parts. That's why it crystallizes – real honey does.
