About Bee FRee FARm
WORKING WITH NATURE
Bee Free Farm is committed to working with nature not against it.
We emphasize chemical free, eco-agriculture practices that prioritize regeneration and biodynamics.
Nurturing a balanced and resilient food system that benefits both environment and people.
CHEMICAL FREE WAY TO BEE
•We grow heirloom varieties that have naturally adapted to diseases over time.
•We use physical barrier methods to deter pests.
•Crop rotation acts as all natural pest management solution, breaking the lifecycle.
BIODYNAMIC
Biodynamic farming is working with nature, not against it.
• Planting according to a biodynamic calendar avoids pests at certain times of the year and grows in harmony with earths natural growth cycles.
•Companion planting and trap crops either repel harmful or attract beneficial insects.
REGENERATIVE
Regenerative Agriculture rebuilds organic soil matter and restores degraded soil biodiversity which fights climate change by aiding carbon sequestration.
•We rebuild our soil with composted wood chips. These convert nutrients that plants can easily absorb and creates humus to combat erosion.
•Composted wood chips aid water conservation by retaining soil moisture and alleviating the need for irrigation.
NO-GMO’s
Large scale commercial agriculture has turned to genetically modified seeds and plants to overcome pests and environmental challenges. Growing on a smaller scale makes holistic approaches to these issues possible. Everything we grow is non-gmo.
PASTURE RAISED EGGS
NO ANTIBIOTICS. NO SOY. NO GMO.
Our heritage breed chickens are raised on a proprietary blend of homegrown fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, grains, and foraged foods like bugs and clover.
PASTURE RAISED
Our Pasture-Raised hens roam free every day! Foraging on a diet of clover, plants and insects. Foraging naturally provides eggs with more vitamin A, vitamin E, omega-3 fatty acids, beta-carotene, and lutein. These rich nutrients contribute to a vibrant amber colored egg yolk!
COLORED BY NATURE
Different chickens lay different colored eggs. We have carefully selected several different heritage breeds of chickens to lay a rainbow egg basket!
HERITAGE BREEDS
Heritage breed chickens are the livestock equivalent of heirloom vegetables. Heritage breeds were raised in the 1800s before industrialized farms.
HAPPY HENS
Pasture raised chickens are happy chickens. Their eggs contain a quarter to a third less cholesterol and a quarter less saturated fat than caged eggs.

SHOU SUGI BAN
We do not use pressure treated wood that leaches toxic chemicals into the ground near the food we grow.
•We harvest rot resistant black locust poles from our farm for our trellis’ and fencing.
•Shou Sugi Ban to weatherproof our wood naturally!
•Shou Sugi Ban is a Japanese method of waterproofing wood that uses no chemicals.
•Wood is burned until the surface is charred, and then coated with natural oil.
•Result is a scorched, charcoal black, all natural, weatherproof finish!
Why is Raw Honey Better?
Our raw honey is extracted from the
beehive and only strained, never filtered. It is unprocessed and never damaged by heat or pasteurization. This keeps the natural pollen, propolis, amino acids and nutritious enzymes intact.
Raw honey contains a wide variety of nutrients. One teaspoon of raw honey contains up to 48,000 grains of pollen. It has approximately 22 amino acids, 31 different minerals and a wide range of vitamins and enzymes. It also contains nearly 30 types of bioactive plant compounds. These are called polyphenols, and they act as antioxidants!
Raw honey has highly concentrated prebiotics. Prebiotics feed beneficial gut bacteria and enables them to thrive. Creating an alkalizing effect that promotes balance and healing to the digestive tract.
