Star Thistle Honey ~ Our 5-Star Star Thistle is back.  Harvested & Extracted November 2011. The Star Thistle plant blooms in mid-summer, grows on the dry hills and along the road-sides of  Northern California. It is one of the most invasive weeds in the country.  It is considered to be a noxious weed.  Since it is invasive, environmentalists wish to eradicate Star Thistle which presently covers 22% of the State of California.  It is a danger to cattle and horses, killing them if they eat too much of it.  However, the bees love the nectar that this prickly plant produces.  So do we.  Star Thistle honey is one of our most popular honeys.  Even those who do not like honey like Star Thistle Honey.  It tastes like candy.  It will enhance any culinary application.  This year's 5-Star Star Thistle is as close to 100% from the Star Thistle plant as you can get.  5-Star Star Thistle earned its name when it was designated by San Francisco Magazine as one of the 125 best things to eat in the S.F. Bay Area. Wildflower/Varietal Honey, Raw, Uncooked, Unfiltered, Unheated, Pure, Natural, Kosher.
