Ward did a wonderful presentation to our garden club! Ward took the time to customize his presentation to our group & make it very interesting and relevant to the group’s... read more interests in gardening. We were all impressed with his knowledge of honeybees and the history and relevant present day information. We all learned a lot and the presentation was both engaging and fun! We did a taste test of the different honey varieties and it was delicious honey. BRAVO! To Brighton Honey and Ward; we would certainly look at having him back for future events!

Fantastic honey and wonderful people.

Best honey around! I would highly recommend to anyone looking for some good local honey in NY.

WOW!!! Ward is terrific! We had a sudden Honeybee swarm turn into thousands of bees and a 9inch deep hive in our yard close to our pool. Ward returned our... read more call ASAP and the next we knew he was in our yard. Ward explained why it was happening and what the procedure was for safe removal. The best part of what we wrongly assumed was to be an ordeal...Wards’ Spring and Fall honeys are fantastic, you have to try some for yourself.

We were in town for parent's weekend at R.I.T. and were looking for something different to do outdoors. I called Brighton Honey to inquire about a visit to the apiary... read more and buying honey. The beekeeper, Ward, was welcoming and accommodating to my request. He gave us a personal tour in his backyard of the apiary and relayed many interesting facts to us about bees! This is not a structured facility and a walking tour. It is a family that welcomes you into their home and onto their property to share with you a piece of their lives. We were able to purchase honey, and it is delicious! I highly recommend a pit stop to Brighton Honey to check out the apiary and to buy some honey. Thank you Ward and family!

I’m beyond happy to have found Ward and Brighton Honey. As a first year beekeeper, I was intimidated at taking on a new skill. After reading a few books I... read more felt I was ready to dive in. I found Ward to be extremely knowledgeable with over 20 years of experience and was more than willing to share his knowledge and tools with me. I purchased nucs and some equipment from him and it was an absolutely ideal experience. We were able to drop off our brood boxes with empty frames and he filled them for us to pick up tightly secured and ready to take home. They’re settling in so nicely and I couldn’t be more grateful to Ward.

The best honey out there!!!!!!

We had a great experience the first time when I came out with my kids and we had a small tour along with explanation. Returned today to purchase more honey... read more for gift baskets. It was easy to get in touch with Ward and a pleasure to work with him.

Love the honey, it's amazing!!!!! great owner and great price!!

The quality of the honey is immediately obvious. It comes in a real glass jar and to protect it in shipping they used lots of soft material to keep it... read more safe. The taste is perfect, it's what I remember when I was growing up in a small town in Mexico. The flavor of the honey is complex, It's not just sweet, you can taste fruit, flowers, and other vegetation as a discrete under tone flavour. I am extatic about my purchase and have decided to be a regular customer. Oh and my kids love the stuff, they started putting it on hot cakes instead of syrup. It's all natural and healthier than anything with corn syrup, so it makes my wife and I super happy to see them eat it.

Introduced friends 🧡 they love their honey for almost a decade now
