School House Bees - Spille's Honey

How We Got Started…Spille’s Honey is rooted in Morning View, Kentucky. Beginning in 1975 Ron Spille moved here to farm fruits and vegetables. To enhance his crop yield, Ron became a beekeeper. Over the years, Ron developed the business from providing friends and family with pure, local honey to being a provider to local, regional and national food retailers. By 2007, Carrie and Ron Spille had developed relationships with other regional beekeepers to keep the honey flowing.In August of 2015 Ron acquired the former Visalia Elementary School and began renovations to make this the home of Spille’s Honey. The facility became a certified food processing plant for the honey packaging and bottling operations which were moved here in the Fall of 2016. Spille’s Honey then opened their doors to sell their delicious honey and provide a convenient, local source for beekeepers to pick up all of their beekeeping needs.
