Sunshine Apiary
Sunshine Apiary in Columbus, Montana, is a small, hands-on honey operation where raw sage and alfalfa honey come from bees you can picture buzzing just beyond the warehouse door. The honey is unfiltered and distinctively floral: sage brings bright, peppery notes while alfalfa leans sweet and light. There isn’t a traditional storefront; you call ahead to confirm someone will be at the warehouse to sell you honey in person, pickup only, which makes each visit feel like a local treasure hunt. The place is very visitable, and tours are common for families and beginners who want to peek into bee life and learn how liquid gold is bottled. Allergy relief stories show up in reviews, with customers noting improvements after making it part of daily use. Columbus locals in Montana keep Sunshine Apiary top of mind for raw, regionally flavored honey. If you’re anywhere in Montana craving true raw honey, this is where beekeeping meets a welcoming community.
