It has been quite some time since we last had Saw Palmetto honey in stock. Some years Ron Ehmann park down the street does a "contained blaze" and burns the Saw Palmettos down to the ground as a pine forest management strategy. But not this year! This year we've gotten our Saw Palmetto! It's really a lovely amber honey.
But did you know how RARE Saw Palmetto honey has become? Saw Palmetto honey comes from the dwarf American palm tree, called the Palmetto palm. During the last century, real estate developers destroyed thousands of acres of Palmettos. A limited area from Sarasota to Miami, known as the "Palmetto belt" is the only region in the US that has a high enough concentration of these palms to support commercial honey production.
It's yummy and raw, and we've got about 15 pounds of it left. Bottles arrived today, so we'll be busy......
