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.

Yes. Free shipping on orders over $50, $5.99 under. We ship across the US from Campbell, California.

Redwood City Honey – Peninsula Raw Honey from Redwood City, CA | Mike & Niki's

Raw honey from Redwood City, California – "Climate Best By Government Test." Our bees thrive in Redwood City's famously mild weather, foraging on the eucalyptus groves, residential gardens, and creek corridors that make this mid-Peninsula city ideal bee country.

What Makes Redwood City Honey Special

Redwood City's official slogan isn't an exaggeration – the city gets more sun and less fog than its coastal neighbors. That means longer bloom seasons and more diverse nectar. Redwood Creek and the surrounding watersheds add riparian vegetation to the mix.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where does Redwood City honey come from?

From apiaries maintained by Mike in Redwood City, CA – on the San Francisco Peninsula, midway between San Francisco and San Jose.

What's the best way to enjoy Redwood City honey?

A spoonful with your morning tea is how most of our customers start. It's also perfect drizzled on yogurt, paired with cheese, or used in homemade salad dressings. Raw honey is a kitchen staple, not just a sweetener.

As Local as It Gets!

Amazing local honey! It’s clear how much love and expertise goes into their product. Make sure to chat with Mike or Niki if you get the chance; their passion is contagious, and you’ll walk away knowing exactly how your honey was sourced. Support local and go see them!

Great honey!

This is the best local honey our whole family enjoys having everyday!!

fragrance too strong

It's pretty easy to apply to the skin (doens't take too much effort to rub it on), but I don't like the smell of the product at all. I would tolerate it if it were a natural smell of the beewax, but no, this is a perfumy kind of odor. And it's strong and lingering. I don't recommend it.

Anne, we get that this did not work for you. and we will take that on the chin. with our next batch we will weigh your opinion in our process
I privately sent you a solution
We hope you will try other things and still be a fan. NIKI
