Welcome to Sperry Honey 👋

The Sperry family has been beekeeping since the 1920's. Based in North Dakota, we sell 100% pure honey, unlike a lot of the stuff you'll find in the grocery store. You'll finish our honey before it has the chance to crystallize, and it has a bold, natural sweetness that won't overpower your meal. We're biased, but we think it's the perfect pantry companion :)
