Star Thistle, a prolific wildflower, grows abundantly amidst the open fields of northern Michigan. These striking little purple flowers yield generous amounts of light pollen, serving as the primary forage source for our bees in the month leading up to our annual honey harvest.

Our Grade A USA honey is packed with essential nutrients, vitamins, and amino acids—the natural goodness that only Mother Nature provides! This honey is not only perfect for sweetening your favorite dishes but also serves as a delightful addition to your baking endeavors. Its versatility makes it ideal for coffee, tea, cheese pairings, shakes, smoothies, and even roasted vegetables. You can also elevate the flavor of fresh fruits like pears and apples. Essentially, it’s a splendid enhancement for any charcuterie platter.

One of the remarkable features of our honey is its long shelf life. True honey does not spoil, and while granulation may occur over time as it crystallizes, this is a hallmark of authentic unpasteurized honey. If you find your honey has crystalized, you can effortlessly liquefy it again by gently heating it. A recommended method is to bring a small pan of water to a near boil (approximately 160 degrees Fahrenheit), remove it from heat, and then place the jar of honey in the hot water, ensuring safety with tongs or protective measures against splashes. Secure the lid on the pan and leave it to sit overnight for the best results.

Indulge in farm-to-table honey products directly from the passionate beekeepers at Sleeping Bear Farms. You can trust that our honey, our hives, and our commitment to service deliver only the best. Plus, our hefty two-pound squeeze jar is designed for easy use and comes recyclable and BPA-free! Enjoy the natural sweetness of Star Thistle honey today!
