Small-batch honey
Since hive health is the #1 priority here, honey is extracted once per year and only from hives that produced a surplus. ​

Meet the bees

Southern-bred VSH queens

Five Acres Honey Farm only acquires southern-bred varroa sensitive hygienic (VSH) queens so that our future colonies descend from healthy lineage. At the same time, our colonies provide attractive genetic diversity to other nearby hives, which ultimately nurtures helpful genes in Chatham County’s colonies. We foster the growth of gentle queenright colonies that are well-adapted for the Piedmont region. None of our hives have ever failed to survive the winter.

​All of our queens have names and unique personalities. Our current queens: Anne, Flannery, Heidi, Ivy, and Lillian. Follow updates on our bees on Instagram with #fiveacreshoneyfarm and #tsbeez.
