While there is no official U.S. federal definition of raw honey, the National Honey
Board defines raw honey as “honey as it exists in the beehive or as obtained by
extraction, settling or straining without adding heat”. Our raw honey has not been
filtered or heated at any time from the hive to the jar.
Raw honey often appears to be cloudy due to the pollen, wax, and other particles
in suspension, and it almost always crystallizes within a year.
