About Us
Orchard Hills Bees began in 2018, when we were gifted a few hive, sparking a passion for beekeeping. What started as a simple hobby quickly grew into a meaningful small business rooted in nature, craftsmanship, and community. Today, we offer a thoughtfully curated line of products—from raw, local honey to hand-poured candles, nourishing lip balms, and gentle, natural skincare.
At the heart of everything we do is a commitment to creating family-friendly, non-toxic skincare and soaps using simple, recognizable ingredients. We believe in taking care of our skin the way we care for our land and bees—with kindness and intention.
We’re nestled in the countryside of Lafayette, New York, surrounded by rolling farms and apple orchards. It’s a beautiful place for bees and people alike. Our bees thrive here, foraging on a wide variety of blossoms that make our honey truly special.
You’ll find a self-serve honey stand at the front of our property, where locals can stop by for fresh, seasonal honey anytime. And for everything else—from candles to skincare—you can explore our full collection online. Be sure to subscribe to our emails for updates on honey availability, product launches, and market days.
Thank you for being here and supporting our journey from hive to home.
