The consistency part is true. The color, however, is determined by climatic conditions and floral sources which provide nectar and pollen. This explains why honey harvested in different locations and seasons varies in color.
@@noreplysamenverliefd7231 Darker colour unfortunately isn't healthier or organic. It just means it's made in the autumn when flowers aren't around so bees use trees instead like pine as a source. That's why the honey is darker. In fact it's of less quality because of that.
Ijust Love this family 🥰 ur doing great mekenze ur one of amillions humbled woman not just any woman but adifrent cultutre n u fit so we'll cos of love u wil be blessed n blessed u n ur kids n ur husband George murume May Our God protect u all n ur everything u have in Jesus Name
Looks like you and your family had a very nice productive day with good eats too. Much success in doing your honey business. How exciting. You are beautiful and so is your family. Take care.
I literally pulled out my tongue when the honey was being poured into the jars and I was really crossing my fingers eagerly waiting on that moment when you said " I know a lot of you were looking forward to getting some of the honey but we will keep you posted next time when we harvest which should be in about FIVE TO SIX MONTHSSS?? Ohhh I almost fainted. Anyway, I'll have to be patient. much love from Kisumu.

Mekenze In Kenya: Congratulations for your honey and t-shirts. You guys are absolutely very entrepreneurial!!! I can see you being very rich family. I ❤❤❤ you very much. jtsdrd, USA
Congratulations for that great honey business 🎉🎉👏the dark honey is the best 😋and just to learn that you dreamed of this business 5 years ago is very encouraging.
It's a ruse to overcharge amateurs. Dark honey isn't any better than lighter honey. It's just honey made by bees in autumn when flowers aren't abundant so they resort to gathering their ingredients from trees which tend to be brown like bark. If anything lighter honey is of higher quality due to the abundance of flowers when it's made.
Our honey is not that dark. It depends on the nectar the bees had. We usually turn the bottle upside down and check on the bubble inside. My children grandfather use to have many bee hives. If there’s only one bubble then it’s pure. 2 or more bubbles sugar was added. It’s our Jamaican way
Wooah! This just give me so much hope as my family embarks on our homesteading journey, I send you many good wishes and soon your honey will be in supermarkets!
I went to a honey Expo in Boston about 3 years ago. There are a few facts about honey. Color and taste are determined by the type of flower the bees got nectar from. For the consistency it’s partially true it’s determined by what mixtures of nectar are in the honey. For instance if avocado flower nectar is mixed with hibiscus 🌺 flower nectar then it will have a different consistency from honey made from orange flower nectar and passion fruit flower nectar. Good job . All dreams are valid no matter where you come from.
Awesome video as usual. You're doing a great job adjusting to farm life. We need to get Wode Maya to come and interview you guys about relocation from the US to Africa.
Yes, true. It’s also true that some honey in the super markets is light because it’s mixed with things.. so it’s diluted. ☺️ Thanks for watching and for the comment.
I miss home. Thanks for sharing your journey and family with us. I usually get my honey from my local beekeeper. Never going back to store bought honey.
Wow thank you for sharing with us the process of harvesting the raw honey. I am a honey lover. I used honey in Hair Treatment, baking, cooking. I am from the other side of your world and hope one day, I can be able to place orders for shipment outside Meru. I love watching your educational vlogs.
I am legit among your premiere gang!! Also, pizza from Red Tomato near Sayen is 100% way tasty than bread gate. Hope you try it out and discover. Congratulations for the 20k subs. And you are absolutely gorgeous!!!
So impressive! Your planning and hard work is starting to pay off.. Congratulations!! Trust you got KEBS sticker. Ati "Kimukuru" George made me laugh! 😂He has a subtle sense of humor. Thanks for the update Mekenze. Blessings
We haven’t harvested again yet.. coming soon. It’s a bit more of a wait this time because we added supa compartments on the hives so the harvest will be bigger.
Was one of your early subscribers and you have never disappointed. Learning quite a bit from your relocation story. Located CA US and relocation is at the top of things to do in the near future
Pure honey appears in different shades of colour from very dark, through to various graduations of brown, amber, cream and even white depending on the forage the bees sourced their nectar from.

@@noreplysamenverliefd7231 I thought being spoilt is preferring organic honey.

The honey quality is top notch👌🏿the delivery was also made on time. It was nice meeting you McKenzie.
Thanks so much! It was nice meeting you as well!
@@Mekenzeinkenya where did you get the packaging containers kindly
I admire you big time 🥰
Am gonna be doing almost the same in near future in Taita Hills
@@maryannm617 my little advice, please avoid copyright. You have no idea where the pothole is and how to fill it. Do your dream and you will succeed
The beauty of honey business is you just let the bees do the work for you and give you a delicious product. Respect to bees. Bees are amazing.
Am new I'm watching all ur videos from the first to last.....I'm in love with ur content❤❤
Aww welcome. Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Please next time I need some for my parents. They are in Kenya so I will be following to make sure I don't miss out.
More blessings will follow in Jesus' name! Congratulations 👏🏾
Got my honey, very very good. What have I been taking all these years?
The delivery was also smooth and with a very friendly driver
The honey packaging!!!!😍😍😭 made me emotional 🥹. Also that traffic was stressing me out from here
It turned out cute, huh??

Thanks so much for the kindness!
They are intelligent couple
I love to watch their videos

You make me to relocate to this country, i am thinking about it every now and then, wow a beautiful dream that come to live
Nice video this honey I would totally buy, congrats on 20k subs. Thanks to those who made orders, Limiri farms is gonna be big 💣💣
Thanks so much!
You're a true woman, you just got a new subscriber from Nairobi much love

Good advice, will try to check the one I get from my local farm.
Sure the colour of honey depends on the nectar the bee collected coming from a beekeeping family background in murang'a kenya.
Lighter honey is actually from flowers than from trees.
Wow Mekenze very nice natural 100% honey.
Next harvest I am begging for some to be sent to Denmark. 👍👍👍👍✌✌❤🇰🇪🇩🇰
Wooah! This just give me so much hope as my family embarks on our homesteading journey, I send you many good wishes and soon your honey will be in supermarkets!
Aww I’m so glad you enjoyed watching. Thanks so much and good luck on your homesteading journey!

It feels good and rewarding.

Time for you to start making homemade pizza..much better with your organic vegetables from the garden fillings. ❤️👍
This is amazing, keep it up, we are happy for you
I appreciate it, thank you!!
Lots of youths should think of relocating back to the farm to make money since jobs have become so scarce in Kenya good job Mackenzie
Lots of opportunity in the village!
Awesome video as usual. You're doing a great job adjusting to farm life. We need to get Wode Maya to come and interview you guys about relocation from the US to Africa.
We love Wode!

Pure honey. Professionally packaged and labelled. When is your next harvest? I would like to order some to be sent to Nairobi.

The honey colour is determined by the flowers the bees got the nectar from. Like The sun Flowers give very clear honey
Yes, true. It’s also true that some honey in the super markets is light because it’s mixed with things.. so it’s diluted. ☺️

Felicity Nkirote should make sure that her people are safe on the campaign lorries. hahaha
Too bad I'm late next I would love to get some
Now this is pure honey.....the dark color says it all
It’s so delicious, too.
Pure honey appears in different shades of colour from very dark, through to various graduations of brown, amber, cream and even white depending on the forage the bees sourced their nectar from.
That honey looks lovely 😊 Is Black honey better for us then❤️
I believe there are different colors of honey that are all very good for you.. but black honey is one sure sign that it’s pure. ☺️
@@Mekenzeinkenya it’s so black and it must be so sweet aswell to taste some right now do you export or you just selling locally ❤️👍
Wow what a natural honey.
Clear natural honey🤣🤣
I am impressed.
☺️
What were all the men on the truck doing? The one climbing up the truck while it was moving had me nervous! 😳
Campaigning 😅
It's kind of normal here during campaign period to see guys hyped and doing crazy things.
soo nice
Congratulations on your honey distributions
Thank you!!
Political guys in the track😂😂 Kenya Kwanza ama azimio!
