Oklahoma honey,
exactly as it comes.

Raw. Unfiltered. Single-site. Harvested from 217 hives across three Creek County locations by two sisters who think honey should taste like somewhere.

OBSERVATION NOTES

Most honey is blended, heated, and filtered until it could have come from anywhere. Ours couldn't.

01 PROVENANCE

Single-Site Origin

Every jar comes from one location — the Blackjack Oak site, the Sandstone Prairie, or Sumac Creek. We don't blend across sites. The flavor difference is real and it's the whole point.

02 INTEGRITY

Raw & Unfiltered

We extract, settle, and jar within 48 hours. No heat above 95°F — ever. The pollen stays in. The enzymes stays in. The flavor stays in.

03 DOCUMENTATION

Labeled Truthfully

Every jar tells you the harvest site, the primary bloom source, the extraction date, and the moisture content. Not because we have to — because you should know what you're buying.

Field Locations

Where the hives live

01

Blackjack Oak Site

Deep in the Cross Timbers, where post oak and blackjack oak crowd out the sky. The honey from this site is the darkest we produce and the most polarizing.

02

Sandstone Prairie

A leased stretch of native prairie along a sandstone ridge. Clover and goldenrod bloom in sequence through late spring and summer.

03

Sumac Creek

Named for the smooth sumac that runs heavy along the creek drainage. Late-season harvest. The color goes amber-red and the flavor follows.

It doesn't taste like honey, it tastes like a place. I don't know how else to explain it.

From Ag Extension to Apiary

We grew up in Bristow. Nora spent eight years in agricultural extension before she decided she'd rather farm than advise farmers. Claire has a food science background and a preoccupation with fermentation, moisture content, and why things taste the way they do.

We started Red Dirt in 2019 with twelve hives and more enthusiasm than experience. We're at 217 hives now and we've made almost every possible mistake along the way. The honey is better for it.
