From our friend and local honey farmer Henry Storch. Oso Honey Farm brings varietal honeys harvested from the heart of the Willamette Valley to the coastal tidelands of the Yaquina River Estuary. Beekeeper Henry Storch has been gathering and breeding locally adapted honeybees for over a decade in the remote parts of the Oregon Coast Range. These PNW adapted bees make earlier honey crops by working in the cool and damp conditions found in the region. Henry works with local farmers to pollinate crops that produce unique varietal honeys to compliment the wildflower honeys harvested in the Coast Range.

Available in 2 flavors:

Wild Blackberry– Location: Yaquina

Our lightest honey harvested in mid July from the banks of the Yaquina River from Elk City to the lower reaches of the Estuary. Three different species of non-native blackberry combine to make this crisp clean honey with the classic blackberry cinnamon spiciness.

Pumpkin–  Location: Corvallis

A dark honey harvest late August from Smith and Kiger islands South of Corvallis. Bees foraged on an heirloom Gill Brothers squash variety, “Golden Delicious,” being grown for the snack market. Strong flavored honey with candy corn and dried fruit flavors that finish with a tamarind tartness.
