Our Creamed Clover Honey is one of our most popular products 🙂 Folks tell us they love the smooth, creamy taste, the mild flavour and the fact that it will never go hard nor crystallize.

In order to maintain all the goodness of raw honey, we freeze our Clover honey as soon as it’s harvested. This special process forces the honey to crystallize really fast, so the crystals are tiny. They will stay this way and never form large crystals – giving the honey this incredible texture forever!

We never heat or filter it so all the goodness and antibacterial properties are still active. This is also the reason why your honey will last forever, because it is raw!

Learn more about our delicious Creamed Clover Honey and how it’s made.

GIVEAWAY!!
Share your photos or recipes featuring creamed honey! Comment below to be entered to win a free 500g jar of our raw Creamed Clover Honey.

Loving yourself is one of the most important parts of our Give a Little Love Online Market. Without showing yourself love, kindness and respect, how can you show it to others in your life.

By spending some time with ourselves, quieting our minds, relaxing our bodies we can rejuvenate our lives and give our best to those around us.

At Forever Bee we know taking care of your mental and physical health is of top importance, that is why we have created this list of our top 10 self care tips to follow this fall!
We want all of our honey lovers to feel and "bee" their best! Based on everything we have heard from your wonderful responses, we have found that the best self care routine includes a nice hot bath with a Bubbles & Balms bath bomb, washing up with a lathering, mild, moisturizing body soap, surrounded by beautiful votive candles, and finished off with hydrating body butter! Luckily you can find all of these amazing self care essentials on our website!

DID YOU KNOW......

When the bees collect the pollen from the flowers, they stuff the pollen into pollen bags on their back legs. This makes it easier for them to fly with all of that pollen. They use the pollen to make bee bread with. Bee bread is a mixture of pollen, honey and a special enzyme the bees secrete. This mixture then ferments and is called Bee Bread. It is very healthy and provides the bees with all their protein and nutrients.

Bee pollen is an incredible natural food and only a teaspoon a day is necessary to reap its many benefits (and that teaspoon contains over 2.5 billion grains of flower pollen that took a busy little bee 8 hours to collect!). We collect it 3 weeks out of the year from our strongest hives.

Bee pollen is approximately 40% protein and contains nearly every nutrient needed by the human body and cannot be replicated by a laboratory (though they have tried!).

Bee Pollen's many benefits include:

- A substantial energy boost
- Relieves symptoms of seasonal allergies and asthma
- A boost to your digestive system with the help of naturally occurring enzymes
- A host of over 90 vitamins and minerals that are readily available and easily absorbed
- It improves the intestinal flora and has a natural antibiotic effect in the body that boosts the immune system
- It restores hormonal balance and helps to eliminate cravings and fight addictions
- Cardiovascular health in terms of lowering cholesterol, improving circulation and strengthening blood vessels

It is delicious over your yoghurt, oatmeal, smoothies or you can add it to your Granola bar recipes as well. You can also just eat it by the spoonful when you need a quick pick-me-up :)

*Note that if you are allergic to bee stings, it is not recommended that you consume bee pollen!* However, if you have Seasonal Allergies we highly recommend that you try Bee Pollen :)

GIVEAWAY!!!
We’ll be giving away a 175g jar of bee pollen to a commenter this afternoon, so make sure to ask your questions or share why you love our pollen!!!
Tell us about a bee experience you have had or just your general feelings about bees and what they do. You are also welcome to ask questions. Matt is live on this post to answer your questions.

Honeystix are one of the most fun winter snacks. Pack it into your backpack for hiking, skiing trips or just a day out on the town. It is great for energy, much healthier than sugary treats and works well as a sweetener in your tea, coffee or to add flavour to your water.

Did you know that honeystix also is gluten-free, peanut free and diary free?

This winter we have a whole slew of new flavours for you to try: Apple, Root Beer, Sour Blue Raspberry, Raspberry, Pina Colada, Pink Lemonade, Peach and of course there is also our new NAKED LINE that contains no colours and only natural flavours: Pure honey, natural lemon and Cinnamon.

GIVEAWAY!!!

We just love the diversity of Canada, It is a beautiful country, with kind and loving people. From coast to coast to coast we also have a beautiful variety of plants to bees feed on to help make a diverse and rich assortment of honey.

Today, our special treat is Buckwheat Honey from the beautiful Buckwheat flowers. Straight from the fields of Manitoba, this honey is a dark, delicious treat packed with healing goodness - according to research it even helps with chest congestion and coughs, as well as lower cholesterol! The unique, complex taste makes it great for including in your recipes and it can be used to substitute maple syrup for something a bit different.

I am absolutely vibrating with excitement this month to talk about Herbology. We have been touching on Herbology topics for the past few months and we have received so much amazing feedback from you all.

Did you know that we grow many of our own herbs which we then use in our Herbal Remedies? The ones that we cannot grow ourselves we purchase from reputable "gardens" from around the world.

The reason why I use natural herbal remedies is because I love how much more I feel in harmony with nature and my body. I know each of the ingredients, I know how it works with my body and I have never had adverse reactions from it.

Here are a few of the incredible natural Herbal Remedies we have talked about and ones that I use in my own home:

- Eucalyptus Chest Rub
- Elderberry Syrup
- Honey Lozenges
- Nettle Tea
- Alfalfa Tonic
- Echinacea, Ginger, Garlic Tincture

Within the next couple of weeks we will be releasing a HUGE Herbology Kit which contains all our herbal recipes, new recipes, ALL the herbs and items you need to make all the recipes and enough to play around with as well.

GIVEAWAY!!!
We would love to give away a Herbology Sampler to a lucky winner.

Today I wanted to break away from talking about one of our products and instead focus on one of our much-used ingredients: Shea Butter.

Shea Butter is one of the ingredients we use in most of our body products. We use Shea Butter that is organic, raw and crude which means that it has not been heated or processed in any way. This is the highest quality Shea Butter

2. Contains many antioxidants, is antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal

3. Reduces stretch marks, scarring, wrinkles and acne, promotes cell regenerations and boosts collagen production
