Here at Desert Creek Honey we would love to have the privilege of selling you some of the world's greatest honey, but more importantly, we would like you to discover the huge importance of honeybees to the world and to each and every one of you. As honeybees are responsible for almost 2/3 of all fruits and vegetables produced, we should be more protective of God's most incredible insect.

Desert Creek Honey Co. was begun in 2004 by Blake Shook with only 2 small beehives. That number has now grown to over 200 hives, and should grow to over 400 hives by the end of 2009. Located outside the rural town of Blue Ridge, Texas, (which is about 1 hour North of Dallas) Desert Creek Honey (DCH) continues to thrive. Why the odd name Desert Creek Honey? This company is located in a small community called Desert, thus the name, Desert Creek Honey Co.

While many people in Texas claim to sell you raw, local honey, the number who actually do is extremely small. Remember, read the label when you buy honey. Just because some marketer trying to make a buck put 'local' on the label doesn't mean it is. Give your honey supplier a call, and ask if they own bees, and ask where the honey comes from.

Desert Creek Honey is by no means a huge business which sells its honey in hundreds of storesacross America. It is simply a small business with big plans. As the owner of DCH, I take pride in each product sold from DCH. Since 2004 when this company began, DCH only sold honey to local stores and markets. We realized recently that not many people outside of Texas have ever tried the pure, natural and unique flavor of our honey. We know that wherever you are from, you will love our honey, and other products.

Honey has been used for centuries for medicinal values, and as a sweetener. It has long been known to be healthier for humans than white sugar. Pure raw honey is full of extra nutrients, and it is easier on the digestive system than most sugars. The FDA has recently approved special honey as a wound care product. So you see, all that to bring you this golden and delicious sweetener we call honey.
