About Callens Honey Farm
We live on a small family farm located in S.W. Minnesota, near the South Dakota border.
The source of our honey is from white and red clover. The honey appears as liquid
gold in color. Our honey is extracted using a hand cranked centrifugal force extractor.
Then the honey is screened once into a holding container from which we later fill the
small honey bottles. We do not heat treat the honey nor add any other ingredients.
Pure and natural is our Minnesota honey! What could taste better?
love from Ohio, where we pray for greenup by April 15th!
w so amazing. love the posts. makes my heart race with all the work accomplished by all. Seems Mario is probably the youngest, right? what will you do in a few years?? syl
