About Mississippi Bees
Mississippi Bees is a first generation operation that is family owned and operated. One day I mentioned to my wife that I thought we should buy some bees. She wondered and asked why bees. I had a little knowledge about them but thought this was something that my family and I could do together. When we started, I didn't realize how hard it was to just buy bees in our local area. It was a real challenge at first. I bought 6 bee hives and built from there. The first place we sold our honey was at the Mississippi Farmers Market. We stayed there for 7 years. The first store we sold product in to was McDade's. I can remember sitting in Babalu's asking my wife if she wanted to walk across the street and take pictures of our product sitting on the shelf. We were so excited! Then Whole Foods approached us about selling our product after McDade's. And from there, we just grew. We are now strictly wholesale. We have about 40 stores that we supply in 3 states. What Makes Our Products Great? There isn't a day that goes by at Mississippi Bee's that our family doesn't work together in some way. We support each other. We work together to ensure our customers are happy with the end product. What makes us most proud of producing Genuine MS products? We are proud of our product because we try to raise a product that is high quality. More importantly, this offers us the opportunity to teach our children and grandchildren a set of skills and efforts that will impact them for a lifetime. How does buying Genuine MS products make a difference here in Mississippi? Buying Genuine MS products supports the neighbor and builds the economy. Why should people seek out and buy Genuine MS products? The products that we grow, raise, make and craft are quality products. Having the opportunity to produce what we need right here, in the state, is a great thing.
