"Raw, Unbearably Good Honey" is the perfect product description for our new honey collection in two sizes. 

Hogan Apiaries was established by Bill and Howard Hogan (The Hogan Brothers) in 1934. After a short period of time, Bill and Olive Hogan took over sole ownership of the business and expanded upon it – adding hives that made the total hive count around 200. In 1950 Bill and Olive’s bees produced a whopping 10 tons of honey – all of which was extracted by hand with a four frame extractor.

The practices used by the brothers, and later Bill and Olive Hogan, were passed on to Bill’s son, Ben, in the 1980s. B. Hogan Apiaries is now owned by Ben & Nancy Hogan, their son Tim, and his wife, Kayleigh. They currently manage over 1000 hives in 31 bee yards (which equates to almost 50 million bees). The production from these hives yields an average of around 130,000 pounds, or 60 tons of honey annually – a long way from their humble beginnings.

Their bee yards are located from Belleville to Gananoque, Ontario on various farms and other lands.
