Our Story
We are a family-owned and operated farm and apiary located in the beautiful state of Ohio. OH Honey Farm was born in 2016 out of a desire to live a healthier and our passion for nature. After a conversation with our friend Doug at Whitehouse Honey, we decided it was time to start our own apiary and to do our part to Save the Honeybee.
On our small city lot in Cleveland, Ohio we started our journey into bee keeping with two five-frame nuc packages that April. The initial challenge was moving beyond the natural fear of being stung by one of the more than 30,000 bees now living in our back yard. It’s safe to say we got past that fear fairly swiftly as our apiary had expanded to seven full-sized Langstroth hives by September.
In 2022 we grew our apiary further with the acquisition of a 4-acre plot of land in Plymouth Township, Ohio. Are goal is to provide our customers with natural products that are free from additives and raised the way nature intended. We pride ourselves on providing pure raw honey while highlighting the importance of honeybees and other pollinators. We now grow a cornucopia of microgreens, vegetables, and fruits, as well as raise chickens and pastured pigs, along with our honeybees.
We were tired of the solution injected chicken from the local grocers and wanted a more flavorful holistically raised bird for our poultry based meals, so in 2023 added pasture-raised chicken to our farm. Just Got Laid Farm Fresh Chicken and Eggs is our small poultry operation.
Summers In Cleveland is our hobby woodworking shop. Many of the items we use in our day to day activities are made right in our on-site workshop. From cutting boards, to chicken tractors, cedar planters, pig huts, and furniture. We enjoy working in our shop.
