Frog Meadow sits on historic Wheeler Farm land — a former 1700s dairy farm and apple orchard perched just below Newfane Hill. Today, those same meadows, orchards, and gardens are alive with pollinators, including the two vibrant beehives that call Frog Meadow home.
From spring through fall, more than 100,000 honeybees forage in our perennial beds, berry patches, apple blossoms, and the surrounding forest, traveling up to three miles to gather nectar and pollen. Their work keeps our gardens thriving — and in late fall, we harvest a small batch of raw, unheated honey as a sweet gift from the land.
Our raw honey is just that: raw. Never heated, filtered, or processed, it retains all the natural flavor, texture, and nutrient-rich elements found inside the hive — tiny flecks of pollen, propolis, and the wild essence of the plants our bees explore. The result is a rich, fragrant honey that tastes like Vermont itself.
We bottle this limited-edition honey right here on the property and sell it in the Frog Meadow Store. Drizzle it into tea, over yogurt, or onto warm toast… or enjoy a spoonful on its own. It’s nature’s sweetness, captured with love.
Our bees are part of the Frog Meadow family, quietly tending the gardens and orchards alongside us. Their work sustains the land, enriches our harvests, and adds a sweet thread of connection between the natural world and everyone who visits.
