Bee Pollen comes from the pollen that collects on the bodies of bees and is considered a highly nutritious food because it contains a balance of vitamins, minerals, proteins, carbohydrates, fats, enzymes, and essential amino acids.
Bee Pollen
How is it sourced?
As bees return to the hive, our beekeepers use a pollen trap to gently brush the pollen off the bees’ legs causing the pollen to fall into a collection bin. From here our beekeeper cleans and dries the pollen at low temperatures preserving its potency and natural properties.
The beekeepers works with only harvest pollen at specific times of the year to ensure that the bees have plenty of time to store their own pollen reserves ensuring hives can prosper.
