Okanagan Bee Pollen
- Pollen is naturally gathered by honeybees as it catches on the tiny hairs on their body when they’re out foraging for nectar. We place a pollen trap on their hive so it naturally falls off when they enter.Pollen can be a great way to lessen allergy symptoms.
*** Make sure to start slowly (a few kernels) to ensure you don’t have a reaction as it’s a compounded form of local allergens. By slowly building up immunity you may notice that you react less harshly when allergy season arrives.Pollen is high in amino acids, making it a great source of protein. There are many benefits; we suggest doing your own research to learn all about them!Tasting Notes | nutty; earthy; slightly sweet; floral; crunchyTry This :- Blend in a smoothie

About Hiveology
Hiveology is an ethical honey company based in Kelowna, BC. They have bees are all over the Okanagan on various local + organic farms. They believe that consuming honey shouldn’t have detrimental effects on the bees who make it. They strive to create a symbiotic relationship with their bees by using organic treatments and gentle practices to improve their lives as they do ours. They only take the excess honey that they are confident the bees don’t need, leaving plenty to keep them healthy and full through the winter. They believe that it is our responsibility to help restore the natural world that we constantly destroy with – what seems like – every action we make. No one can do it all on their own, but every little bit helps. Their impact of choice? Helping the bees flourish, not only to keep food on our table but to keep all plant life thriving so that all the other living things can have food and shelter.
You can find them at various farmer’s markets and artisan shows around the Okanagan, year-round. Their staple markets include the Kelowna Farmer’s Market, Vernon Farmer’s Market, Peachland Farmer’s Market, and Penticton Farmer’s Market.
Minimal Intervention
Their practices are organic and sustainable, with animal welfare and conservation first and foremost. They use gentle, yet science-based methods to improve the health of their local honeybee population.
A Healthy Alternative
Their Okanagan Garlic Honey is a great substitute for conventional marinades and sauces. Their original wildflower honey is great for sweetening tea and coffee, using as a healthier alternative to refined sugars in your favourite recipes, soothing a sore throat, and DIY at-home skin treatments!
About Our Raw Honey
Hiveology uses minimal intervention with their methods to provide the highest quality products closest to nature. They never add heat or pasteurize our honey. The smell, taste, and color depend on the types of flowers visited by the bees in their location. Honey has so many great health benefits, too many to mention here, but you can research for yourself, and have fun finding out why adding honey to your diet can be super beneficial!
