Vendor - Riverglen Honey


The apiary at Riverglen was established a few short years ago. The environment of Riverglen - a Demeter-certified, biodynamic farming initiative in the Shirley's Bay area of the Greenbelt - ensures a steady supply throughout the season of a wide diversity of chemical- and gmo-free blossoms; clover, alfalfa, goldenrod, plus many herbs and tree blossoms, all contribute to an exquisite blend of flavours. Unfortunately, last winter's freeze/thaw cycle towards the end of the season, resulted in the loss of three of our hives. However, the harvest from the remaining hives exceeded expectations and is of a superior quality. This truly is "limited edition" honey, so get it while you can!
