Honey has been described as the elixir of the Gods for thousands of years and rightfully so.  It is not only a natural sweetener, it is much healtier than sugar and has many healing qualities.

Our family farm is located in south-western part of Bohemia, one of the states of the Czech Republic.  Our village of Maxov is located in a pristine, natural setting which is perfect for making delicious honey.  Ing. Daniel Prokes has turned his passion for beekeeping into a business and has been providing bees with a perfect environment for producing what they do best - honey - for over 20 years. 

As he says:  "I provide our bees with what they need and get out of their way!"

Our family business has grown into a large enterprise.  We sell honey retail to individuals through our Medoteka, a store that carries our honey and all related products.  We also sell at fairs, open markets and other venues.

We also sell honey wholesale in large quantities - tons at a time, to markets that demand it.  Our honey comes with all the guarantees, certificates and deliciousness our clients come to expect.
