beeland

A great honey, a big variety of honey canned fruited and vegetables (very delicious!), wonderful honey cosmetics. Plus, great service and a charming historical store - that's certainly worth a visit!

Great people! Amazing honey ! We stop by whenever we can. One Christmas we even got out Christmas tree out this way so we could buy honey gifts for all our friends and relatives. The tourtière is also to scrumpdidlyumtious!

Who would have thought that people come from miles away to buy the honey at Beeland! Morley uses no water in his honey, so it does not turn to sugar. You can buy a gallon and not worry about it going "bad."In addition to honey, Morley has beeswax candles and soaps. If you are really curious, he might take you on a tour of the basement workplace.

Morley, the owner, is a delightful host and has some really tasty treats at this little gem of a store.Morley offers sample tastes of his honey and I really recommend the Lemon Honey, oh so tasty! You can also get Brandy & Grand Mariner Cherries made with his wonderful honey and many other jams, salsas and honey.It is a quick side trip if you are staying at Radium, Invermere or Fairmont Hot Springs BC. I was staying at Fairmont Hot Springs and it was about 40 mins from there. I will certainly visit at my next visit in the area as I am certain my yummy purchases will not last long.

While traveling through the Kootenays with family I purchased some of Beeland's Wildflower Amber honey. It is the best honey I have had and our family has honey all the time. Ever since I have tried to find something similar with no luck. I've bought honey at all kinds of markets and brought honey home from other countries - nothing has had such a wonderful flavour. How to get this honey to Calgary? I might have to just drive out there.

We found this place by accident, looking for what we thought was an historic general store. Same place, new purpose.This place is everything bees and honey. The best honey I've every tasted, bar none. When it's available, go for the rare, light snowberry. It comes from high on nearby Jubilee Mountain. Besides honey there are many other food products, plus candles and many other gift items. Last, there are lots of frozen and quick high quality food items. While I was there, several bicyclists came in to stock up on snacks and cool drinks.We planned our 2nd trip to BC this year, making sure to schedule a return visit to Beeland. It's about 30 minutes from Radium Hot Springs, and is highly recommended as an easy side trip. The owner/beekeeper was at the shop both visits, this time in his whole beekeeper outfit! At both visits, I was offered several samples to taste and much personal attention and thorough answers to any question. So besides a delicious treat, you will learn something too.
