What Stewart's Apiaries is all about...
At Stewart's Apiaries we have a passion for the honey bee and love the role we play managing our 2,000 plus hives. Honey bees are essential for our world considering they pollinate such a large percent of what we eat. As beekeepers we realize the impact our role has in that. We take pride in caring for these amazing insects and our role as their care-takers to keep them healthy and thriving.
Stewart's Apiaries is proudly based out of Okeechobee, Florida, but our bees travel to many states on the east coast as well as going out to California for pollination. We like to think they take plenty of vacations before returning home to sunny Florida. Some vacations are quicker then others, but each one brings a reward for the bees of a unique flower source to make sweet honey.
Our honey bees produce some of the most unique varieties of honey in each location. Honey from different flower sources not only have different tastes, but the shade of the honey changes. Each kind brings different benefits from eating it. For example, getting local honey and eating it daily can reduce allergies.
Because we know how many benefits honey brings to our customers, we want to offer as many as possible.
Benefits from honey are endless. We hope you enjoy every spoonful.
