Read our reviewsCody is professional, knowledgeable, and reliable. He was highly recommended by our pest company for a bee infestation in our home that we would have never been able to tackle on our own. He worked diligently to safely relocate thousands of bees from our exterior wall. He made frequent trips back and forth to resume work when weather was not in our favor. Definitely recommend!!
We unfortunately had a bumblebee nest in a fake plant near our front door. Very uncommon to say the least. Brainfood Honey, ie:Cody, was the only company that would relocate the nest and most importantly not harm the bees. Thank you so very much!
Absolutely wonderful experience. Great communication and arrived as promised. Cody removed a honey bee hive for me without any issues that was under the siding of my home. Great company to deal with! Highly recommended to anyone needing help with honey bees at their homes. Thank you for everything.
Love and appreciate this little honey shop in Spring Hill. I have been coming here for many years. It is a step back in time and amidst all new construction brings me back many years ago when all you heard was birds chirping & squirrels playing among the beautiful trees. Thank you for your shop.
Super easy to order and pick up! Also if you message them, they respond almost immediately which is a huge plus! We cannot wait to have it with our coffee when we get home!
We love to buy local honey when we travel. The understated roadside "Honey" sign got our attention while driving through Spring Hill and we're very glad we stopped! The honey is up there with the best we've had anywhere.
Ordinary sign, extraordinary honey!
We went through half a jar VERY quickly. The rest is coming back to Toronto with us.
