The Rogue Farms honeybees are the first to notice the blossoms that appear in their Hazelnut trees and Big Leaf Maples; and the daffodils and tulips that grow near the barn. Soon they’ll be foraging for nectar in the flowering cherry, apple and plum orchards.

No one knows terroir like the Rogue Farms Honeybees. The honey they produce is a sampling of all the flavors of the Wigrich Appellation – a unique taste of place.
