Abt Hot Honey Bottle Medium Heat Natural

    Added arbol peppers and apple cider vinegar to create the perfect stingy, medium heat.
  • Meet The Beekeepers
    Karen and Brian Thomson are graduates from Iowa State University with degrees in Horticulture. North Barrington, IL has been their home for 30 years. Karen & Brian have two sons who are also Iowa State University graduates. One is working in Washington D.C. and the other in Chicago.
  • Brian Started Beekeeping When He Was 11 Years Old!
    In 1975, Brian volunteered at the Cranbrook Nature Center in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, tending to the beehives. When he was 16, he started Thomson Assembled Beehives and sold beekeeping equipment ready to be used. At the time, ready to use equipment was was a new concept. He continued the business and maintained 10+ hives while teaching classes about beekeeping until 1984. Shortly after that time, Brian was busy with internships in his field of study (Turfgrass management) and had to sell the beehives and put his passion for bees on hold.
  • Return To Beekeeping
    In 2016, Ray and Brenda Bailey (Karen's sister), started keeping bees in Texas. Brian could not let his brother-in-law start keeping bees without him starting a few hives himself! The first year, Brian and Karen started 2 hives and by the second year they were up to 8 hives, with plans to add more the next year. As of 2024, the Thomson's have 140 hives and growing. It is now a full time business. Karen and Brian attend many farmers markets in the area along with selling their products online and teaching classes.
  • Honey Lake - It Is A REAL Lake
    Honey Lake, the inspiration behind our name, is a real lake in North Barrington, IL .The lake is located outside of Chicago. It is a 65 acre glacial lake. All of our beehives are located in and around North Barrington, IL.
