Our products are all hand-made in small quantities. We sell them at the Great Barrington Farmers’ Market (Mothers’ Day through October), various holiday markets and also offer them online.
The centerpiece of our business is raw honey. Some people say raw honey has health benefits. We are quite sure it tastes better. Most of the honey sold in the United States is imported. In addition, commecially sold honey is often superheated, which destroys its distinctive flavor. Nick Calderone, professor of entymology at Cornell: “If you can’t taste the difference between raw honey and commercial store-bought honey, you need a tongue transplant.”
We think you’ll love our all natural beeswax skin care products: the ultra rich hand cream with an olive oil base (great for elbows and feet, too), the silky smooth facial moisturizer with a jojoba oil base, and the sweet almond oil-based lip balm. And please try our 100% beeswax candles. They are dripless and burn with no residue. The votives last 7 or more hours. For longer life, trim candle wicks to 1/4″ between uses.
We offer gift baskets of our products year-round, to make gift giving easy. Our standard baskets are shown below. We also create custom baskets. Give us your gift list and budget. We arrange the gifts and take care of the shipping. Email us for details: millriverfarm@gmail.com
