Love Brighton Honey! Friendly man willing to educate anyone interested in beekeeping and eco friendly living. Delicious raw honey tasting and available for purchase!

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 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.

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 for... read more gift baskets. It was easy to get in touch with Ward and a pleasure to work with him.

You know where to go if you need pure natural honey in Rochester. Plus Ward is happy to chat about his process and even offers a tour if interested.

I found this place online on Friday evening and was able to “schedule” a time to show up for a short tour the next day. Ward is extremely welcoming not... read more only with his hives but his entire property and home. I haven’t met many beekeepers, but I’ll probably never meet a more humble one. All of our questions were answered in full detail and we absorbed all there is to know about queen bees, honey production, and how bees survive the winter. A perfect place to bring a date or the family for an hour, and I can’t even begin to describe the honey itself—it’s that tasty, natural and sweet. We bought two jars and some even contain chunks of honeycomb as a sweet delicacy. 10/10 will return someday.

If I can do more than 5 stars I would. Unique find, the best quality product received from Brighton Honey. I buy often and get it shipped to VA. Best... read more customer service and very fast delivery. I’m hooked for life.

I’ve bought delicious honey from Brighton Honey a few times and always loved it, but today we needed help with something else..... BEES! We woke to a bunch of... read more honeybees making their way into our house from the attic, coming through the light fixtures. YIKES. I called Ward, and he was able to come and help us get rid of them. He was very knowledgeable and quick, he gave us great advice and we were able to save tons of $$ by calling him vs an exterminator. 10/10 would recommend the honey and bee removal!!

Just by accident I was looking for honey and found a former student of mine! Ward was one of my brightest students and consistently demonstrated exceptional intelligence and engineering skills.... read more I am not surprised that he has take up beekeeping. The honey is highly recommended!

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.

Ward is a bee SAVIOR! He came to the golf course I work at and rather than exterminating a giant swarm of honeybees he tricked them into a box and... read more took them away for us. So grateful for his kindness and his patience! I recommend him to anyone and everyone!

The light honey has a smooth sweetness that's not overwhelming. It goes great with snacks! Delivery was on-time,; no complications.

Great beekeeper and incredible honey!
