If you're looking for a gift that's genuinely made in North Florida, not mass-produced overseas with a "Florida" sticker slapped on it, you've come to the right place. Everything at Thy Will Bee Done Apiary is made or sourced directly from our family beekeeping operation in High Springs, Florida. The honey in our jars comes from our own hives. The beeswax in our candles and soaps was rendered from our own comb. This is as local as it gets.
For the Honey Lover
Our raw wildflower honey makes a gift that people genuinely remember. Unlike the bear-shaped squeeze bottle from the grocery store, a jar of local Alachua County wildflower honey tells a story, of gallberry and saw palmetto and the flatwoods of North Central Florida. We offer everything from small 3oz hex jars perfect for stocking stuffers to generous 2lb jars for the serious honey enthusiast. Our gift boxes pair honey with beeswax candles or soaps for a beautifully complete present.
For the Candle Person
Beeswax candles are in a completely different category from paraffin or soy. They burn longer, drip less, and emit a gentle, natural honey scent without any added fragrance. They also release negative ions when burning, which many people find creates a noticeably cleaner, calmer atmosphere. Our candles, from elegant taper candles to birthday candles to decorative shapes, are poured with 100% pure beeswax from our High Springs hives. Shop beeswax candles here.
For the Natural Skincare Fan
Beeswax and honey have been used in skincare for thousands of years for good reason. They're deeply moisturizing, naturally antibacterial, and gentle enough for sensitive skin. Our handcrafted soaps and lip balms are made in small batches with real beeswax and honey, no synthetic fragrances, no harsh chemicals. They're the kind of product you buy once and then can't imagine going back. Browse our natural skincare here.
