Golden Honey
Since forever, honey has fascinated humanity with its evocation of joy, sweetness, and eroticism. Venerated for its physical and spiritual qualities, honey has accompanied human history since the dawn of time as a symbol of protection, of abundance, and of eternity.
Adaptogen
One of the numerous fascinating properties of honey is its adaptogenic quality. Honey is, in some way a living being in its own right, one who knows how to adapt to the needs of what it touches.

A Call for Responsibility
The general situation of the global honey industry reflects, in a conspicuous manner, the irresponsible phase that humanity is going through.
A large portion of the honey for sale through mass-market retailing – almost 2 millions tons per year – is adulterated. Conventional apiculture is made up of practices that are, much of the time, very disconnected from natural laws.
The quality of honey reflects the well being of the bees and the landscape. As caretakers of bees, co-creators of biodiversity, or conscious consumers, we can strengthen the field of responsible honey harvest and consumption.
