Flavored honeys come in many different flavors and their use is limited only by imagination. There is even a flavored honey for ice cream, ginger brings Christmas to mind, mint cools down. You can find more flavored honeys in our online store.
We make individual and handmade, Finnish handmade, beautiful individual candles from beeswax. We only want the best for our customers.

In order to guarantee the quality of the products, we have also wanted to update our own skills, and Elisa is currently training as a natural resource producer and Jemina is training as a bio and food technology engineer. In this way, we can develop our operations further and guarantee our customers high-quality and good products in the future as well.

As entrepreneurs, we also consider the well-being of bees to be an important part. As full-time beekeepers, we have time for the bees, when the bees need it the most. We collect pollen, propolis and perga from beehives, but we take the bees' own needs into account and make sure that, first and foremost, the bees get the amount they need collected.

  Yrittäjinä toistemme ja perheemme tuki on tarvittaessa iso apu mehiläisten hoidossa. Molemmat Elisa ja Jemina on suorittaneet mehiläistarhaajan ammattitutkinnon. Lisäksi koulutusta ja uuden oppimista pidetään yllä mm.käymällä aktiivisesti Suomen mehiläisliiton järjestämissä koulutuksissa. Jemina osallistui kesänä 2023 euroopan laajuiseen Insignia projektiin missä kerättiin meidän mehiläisistä ja mehiläispesästä tietoa, lisäksi Helsingin yliopistolta kävi tutkijat seuraamassa Jalasjärvellä mehiläisten toimintaa ja ottivat näytteitä.


In the future

In the future, we also want to be pioneers and now 2/3 of our honey will be organic in 2024 and all of our honey will be organic in 2025. We have also been awarded the Finnish Work Mark, the Finnish Key Flag in 2022, and we also have the Good Finland Mark.

Elisa's interest in pollinators and honey as a natural sweetener steered the operation of the farm in an even more pollinator-friendly direction. Home garden bees pollinate the fruits of the garden and vegetable garden, not forgetting wild berries. Häme Highland Honey's other apiaries are located in the lake highlands of Häme, Urjala, Tammela, Forssa, Valkeakoski, Akaaa and Iittala in Hämeenlinna.
