WHO ARE WE?

Beekeeping has been around for centuries, but in India, it really started picking up after independence as a way to support rural livelihoods. That’s where HoneyDay Bee Farms comes in.

Founded by Guruprasad PR, our journey began in 2011, long before we officially started in 2016. More than just a honey brand, we’ve always been about building a strong, sustainable beekeeping community. As a social enterprise, we work closely with farmers—training them, providing resources, and ensuring ethical beekeeping practices that protect both their livelihoods and the bees.

From setting up bee farms to offering beekeeping supplies and expert guidance, we’re here for every step of the process. We harvest honey from our apiaries, buy from community projects, and partner with ethical beekeepers who follow our strict quality standards. Today, we proudly offer one of the widest collections of honey variants in India.

At the heart of it all, it’s simple: strong communities, thriving bees, and honey you can trust.

WE STAND FOR

We stand for honest honey, ethical beekeeping, and empowered farmers.
Everything we do protects pollinators, supports livelihoods, and keeps things as nature intended.

Sustainability

Our beekeeping practices are gentle on bees, kind to nature, and built for long-term balance. We believe in ethical extraction, minimal processing, and nurturing pollinators — not exploiting them.

Quality

We harvest raw honey from forests, farms, and remote plains — unpasteurised and free from additives. Each batch is traceable and comes straight from the hands of skilled, ethical beekeepers.

Community

Our work supports small farmers, tribal beekeepers, and rural families across India. We train, equip, and create lasting livelihood models — because honey is sweeter when it uplifts the hands behind it.

HoneyDay Honey - is it raw?

It is raw honey, as it is directly extracted & minimally filtered. It contains pollen, enzymes & very small particles of beeswax.
Is crystallised honey adulterated/spoiled?

No, it is not a sign of spoilage or adulteration. It is very natural for honey to crystallise, and is just a matter of time. Crystallisation occurs due to a higher glucose content in the honey, among other factors such as lower temperatures accelerating crystallisation. Crystallised honey can be liquefied by gently warming it in a water bath (below 45°C).
How should honey be stored?

Store at room temperature away from direct sunlight & moisture. Use only completely dry spoons. Keep the lid closed tightly to prevent moisture absorption, which leads to fermentation of honey.
Are Monofloral honey varieties artificially flavoured?
