For more than 8 years, Nate’s Honey has been the #1 branded honey in the U.S., and now we’re proud to share Nate’s Hives is officially the #1 beekeeper in the U.S.
Nate’s Hives has grown to more than 6 billion honey bees and 120,000 buzzing colonies. We have more than 100 passionate beekeepers working together at 10 apiary sites across the country caring for our honey bees and Nate’s Honey.
How did we reach this incredible milestone? Nate’s Hives was built upon trusted beekeeper relationships with a vision to expand our trusted hive-to-table honey approach, boost U.S. honey production and make an impact beyond the bottle.
By becoming the largest beekeeper in the country, Nate’s Hives can combine local expertise from generations of beekeepers with investments in science and innovation that can transform beekeeping – making real progress to strengthen honey bee health, improve sustainable beekeeping practices and ensure access to 100% pure honey.
But we couldn’t have done it without Nate’s Honey fans. Your support and trust in Nate’s Honey have allowed us to pursue a greater impact than just selling honey (albeit the highest-quality, best-tasting honey!). Thank you for loving Nate’s Honey as much as we do. We can’t wait to share all the exciting updates for years to come.
