Linden Honey — Light, Floral & Naturally Soothing
Built By Bees Linden Honey is harvested during late spring in Upstate New York, when linden
(basswood) trees burst into fragrant bloom. Honeybees gather nectar from these pale blossoms,
transforming it into a golden honey prized for its refined flavor, smooth consistency, and
naturally beneficial properties.
A Honey Rooted in Tradition and Place
Linden Honey has a long history in the Northeast, where linden trees have been valued for
centuries by both Native American communities and early settlers. Unlike familiar clover honey,
this variety offers a more nuanced profile with soft floral sweetness and subtle citrus-mint
undertones. Each jar reflects the region’s seasonal bloom and the careful stewardship of local
beekeepers who respect both land and pollinators.
Bottled raw and unfiltered, Linden Honey retains its naturally occurring enzymes, minerals, and
antioxidants that are often lost in heavily processed honey. Free from additives and
preservatives, it delivers pure flavor and nourishment exactly as the bees intended.
Naturally rich in polyphenols and flavonoids, Linden Honey supports everyday wellness by
helping combat oxidative stress and supporting immune balance. It also contains trace minerals
such as calcium, potassium, and magnesium, making it a gentle, food-based option for those
seeking natural alternatives to refined sweeteners.
Traditionally, Linden Honey has been enjoyed for its soothing qualities, especially when stirred
into warm teas. Many families have long relied on it during seasonal changes for comfort,
making it a trusted staple in both traditional remedies and modern wellness routines.
Beyond internal use, Linden Honey is also appreciated for skin and hair care. As a natural
humectant, it attracts and retains moisture, making it a popular ingredient in homemade face
masks, hair rinses, and gentle skincare treatments. Its smooth texture and mild scent make it
ideal for regular beauty rituals without harsh additives.
