Meet the Beekeepers
Named after our picturesque location in the foothills of Southeastern Pennsylvania hill country, Welsh Mountain Apiaries is a local wild forage beekeeping operation, natural honey producer, nucleus seller, and beekeeper supply company.
What began with one beehive as a family project in 2014 has grown to more than 850 production hives. We work tirelessly to make sure our honey is free from pesticides and GMO pollen. With great attention to detail, we keep our hives on organic farms, forests, and wild meadows, allowing us to harvest and bottle local raw honey that is fresh and unfiltered. While it requires a lot of effort, we do not rely on pollination services, we do not pasteurize our honey, and we consistently move our hives to locations that maximize wild forage opportunities.
Our bottled honey includes raw basswood, buckwheat, orange blossom, raspberry blossom, wildflower, clover, locust, and more.
Whether you’re looking for beeswax candles, nucleus colonies (nucs) for sale, or our Southeastern Pennsylvania honey, give us a call to learn more and place your order today!
Beekeeping With Nature, Not Against It
Although it is common among large commercial or industrial-scale beekeepers, we do not feed our bees high fructose corn syrup, and we work hard to keep our bees healthy by controlling mites without the use of chemicals.
