Becky's Birds and Bees
In Dexter, Michigan, Becky's Birds and Bees isn't just a sign on a shed, it's where raw honey tastes like sunlight in a jar. Their honey is raw and unpasteurized, produced by bees right in the yard, with a natural, clean flavor that locals call the real thing. Fans rave that it goes into tea, on toast, and even becomes a spoonful-worthy treat for kids. Beyond honey, they make beeswax products, a small but welcome extension of the bee family in Dexter, Michigan. You can usually find Becky's at the Dexter Farmers Market, where fresh jars pop up season after season. The aroma is honeyed and floral, a little grass and citrus, the kind that makes toast feel like a feast. If you swing by the market, you can chat with Becky herself and grab a jar to take home, a tangible reminder of local beekeeper pride.
