Welcome to the FAQ hive! We’ve gathered the most buzzworthy questions our visitors tend to ask—usually right after they accidentally get honey on their phone screen.
🍯 "Is your honey really raw?"
You bet your thorax it is. Our honey comes straight from the hive to the jar with minimal interference—no pasteurizing, filtering, or unnecessary shenanigans. It’s raw, real, and might even contain some bits of pollen, propolis, and pure bee magic. If you're used to the squeeze bottle stuff, prepare your tastebuds for a revelation.
🐝 "Can I eat the stuff floating in the jar?"
Yes, and you should. That “stuff” is where the good stuff lives—pollen, wax, propolis, and occasionally the dreams of overachieving bees. It’s edible, natural, and part of what makes raw honey rawesome.
📦 "Where can I buy your honey?"
You can snag our liquid gold:
At Putney Coop, Green Mountain Orchard, and Putney Diner (all in VT)
From Brilliance in Brattleboro
At Cabot’s Candy in Provincetown, MA
Or straight from the source at PutneyRidgeApiary.com
If you see a bee with a tiny delivery bag, that’s probably Buzzbee testing a new side hustle.
🐝 "What’s the deal with all the bees with names?"
Oh, those buzzing weirdos? That’s our hive cast:
Buzzbee – Fitness influencer with wings. Think gym bro, but fluffier.
Buzzwell – Science guru and part-time hazard.
Buzzloaf – Chill vibes only. Might nap mid-sentence.
Beatrix Buzzwing – Our on-the-scene reporter. No pollen scandal goes unreported.
They show up in videos, blog posts, and occasionally in your dreams.
🛡️ "How do I store raw honey?"
Easy: cool, dark place. Pantry = perfect. Fridge = too cold, honey sad. Over time, it might crystallize (which is totally normal), but don’t panic. Just give it a warm bath and a pep talk.
💌 "What happens after I sign up for your newsletter?"
Expect a warm welcome, questionable bee humor, and the inside scoop from Beatrix Buzzwing herself. You’ll get updates, stories from the hive, and maybe a coupon if Buzzloaf remembers to click “send.”
🐝 "Do you give tours?"
Only to other bees. Just kidding! Stay tuned—we may open our hive up for tours someday. Until then, follow along online or just imagine what it smells like: sunshine, wax, and ambition.
📬 "How do I contact you?"
Send us a message through the site, email us directly, or write a letter and strap it to a bee (though we don’t recommend the last one). We’ll respond faster than a guard bee on espresso.
