Bernal Bears Honey is pure, raw, and unfiltered honey made by our backyard bees in Bernal Heights, San Francisco. Our bees roam within a three-mile radius, collecting nectar and pollen from a variety of sources, including eucalyptus in the parks, fennel along San Jose Avenue, and the year-round blooms of thousands of irrigated gardens.

Our beehives are located near Holly Park, where our bees thrive in the mild climate that San Francisco provides. They are gentle creatures that work tirelessly for the good of the hive, making and storing honey for times when nectar is scarce. The result is a delicious and healthy honey that you can enjoy in its natural crystallized form or liquify it by gently heating in a pan of water in a very low oven.

Commercial beekeeping has caused significant problems for bees, with the movement of millions of bees around the country and the globe spreading pests and causing significant losses of hives each year. At Bernal Bears, we are committed to sustainable beekeeping practices that promote a healthy gene pool and benefit local vegetable and fruit gardens.

By choosing our honey, you are supporting a small-scale, sustainable beekeeping operation that provides pure, delicious honey while helping to protect and preserve the vital role that bees play in our ecosystem. Our honey is nothing else but pure, raw, unfiltered honey.

So go ahead, indulge in the sweetest taste of San Francisco with Bernal Bears Honey. And remember, by enjoying our honey, you are also doing your part in supporting the health and well-being of our local bees and gardens.
