It was a pleasure hosting our friends from Whole Foods Market and the Portsmouth Herald. We provided a tour of the SeaBee Honey House and one of our apiaries in Rye, NH. We also made the front page of the paper. Thanks everyone! @wholefoods @seabeehoney @portsmouthherald

Prior to the opening of the Portsmouth Whole Foods Store - Food Industry Network interviewed Holly Long from Whole Foods and she discussed why they selected SeaBee Honey for their store.
Hyper Local is when we have honey close to the retailer. As many of you know we spread our hives around the Seacoast of New Hampshire and beyond. Each hive's honey is processed individually and traceable back to the hive. Whole Foods is aligned with this our approach and is one of the reasons we decided to partner with them in their new Portsmouth store. Does Whole Foods currently have a presence in the Portsmouth area? Curious as to how you approach the forager process when Whole Foods is opening a new store. How do you find and foster new brands in each market? We currently have two existing stores in New Hampshire as well as a store in Portland, Maine, that is not too far away from Portsmouth, but this is our first store on the seacoast of New Hampshire. For new stores, we typically try to forage for items from the immediate local area, but we also look to highlight existing local suppliers that we already have amazing relationships with. For our Portsmouth store, we’ve done just that. We have some hyperlocal honey from a new supplier, SeaBee Honey....
