Why is Y.S. Organics honey a light color and more solidified than other raw honey?
Where and what type of honey plants bees forage on will determine honey color, level of nutrients, fragrance and taste. Extreme cold region honey is lighter in color than tropical honey. Such wild honey plants as acacia, alfalfa, basswood, and sweet clover produce an almost colorless honey (known as water color) which when crystallized turns almost white. The strength of crystallization (hardness) determines the level of live state nutrients and heat sensitive enzymes. A powerful natural occurring energy stored in the extreme cold region allows this honey to crystallize within a three weeks maximum period upon extraction. The harder the honey the better. Tropical honey will never be bale to match the nutrients and strength stored in this solidified honey.

YS Organic Bee Farms has built a credible reputation in the bee products market nationwide with four generations of hands-on beekeeping experience behind them. Dedication to the natural foods and supplement industry has been the focus of Y.S. Organic Bee Farms since its inception.

Their long term commitment to bee products lead them to intensive research and development. 1995 was a landmark year, a launching point, for Y.S Organic Bee Farms becoming the pioneer in producing and marketing granted by U.S.D.A. (United States Department of Agriculture).

They have established a close knit working relationship with dedicated beekeeping farms in Canada and Brazil to meet with the ever-growing demands as the major supplier of  honey to the natural / health food and grocery industries.

Specialty products, such as YS Organic Bee Farms', require both retailer and consumer education. They have previously held exciting Fairs drawing over 1,000 people a day as we toured around the Midwest region and offered tens of thousands of people the opportunity to learn the basic principles of beekeeping, benefits and awareness. Their fully-equipped mobile unit allowed the community to get "first hand" experience with lectures, samples and visual aids (displaying a see-through beehive with live bees including Queen Bee) was educational and stimulating for all who were privileged to be involved.

Their entire staff remains fully dedicated and committed to living a healthy lifestyle and serving the natural and products industry with PRIDE!

The philosophy at Y.S. Organic Bee Farm is and always will be...
