Dunsmore Honey

Jason was raised in New Braunfels, TX, and began beekeeping in 2014. He learned to manage the apiary without chemical treatments. Jason and Amy, with their two children, run Dunsmore Honey, guided by values to operate a sustainable honey farm that protects the environment. Amy's background in animal behavior, ecology, environmental advocacy, food, and family are central to Dunsmore Honey's values. They believe their honey is a medicinal food and use natural beekeeping methods to keep colonies healthy and never use chemical treatments in their apiary. Their raw honey is hand harvested and hand processed to retain its natural health benefits. Many customers use it to help alleviate seasonal allergies and other ailments for both humans and pets. They sell their honey and other homegrown and homemade products at their online shop or at local farmers markets. They are closed for the season and are awaiting the next harvest in July 2026. They offer farm pickup from their contactless pickup box located at the farm. Their apiary is nestled in the rural, wooded slopes of the Balcones Canyonlands, at their homestead in New Braunfels, Texas. Their bees forage on wild, native plants in rural woodland, surrounded by large meadows of wildflowers and thickets of oak, ashe juniper (mountain cedar), and elm trees. The diversity of flowering plants in their area is truly astounding. Their honey can have a different color, aroma, taste, flavor, and texture each time they harvest, depending on the plants abundant and preferred by the bees during nectar flow, as well as the sun, wind, rainfall, temperature, minerals, soil, and soil pH. They have identified several different kinds of herbaceous plants, grasses, shrubs, and trees within their bees’ forage zone. Their bees may collect nectar, honeydew, pollen, and propolis from a large variety of plants to make a rich and complex honey. They are located one hour between both San Antonio and Austin, west of IH-35, by the intersection of Pur
