New Mead Release
The Saturnalian
Named after an ancient Roman winter festival in honor of Saturn, god of agriculture and the harvest, celebrating "the returning power of the sun's light after the winter solstice." The Saturnalian is a delightful dessert mead made with meadowfoam honey and infused with cinnamon, nutmeg, and Haitian cocoa nibs from The Cocoa Forge in Port Townsend. This naturally sparkling batch was bottled unfiltered to retain all of its yummy flavors.
New Art Show
At the meadery through February.
A blending of photography and painting, and a love for rural and urban, the Skyline Series captures moments in time, in a style that is akin to a modern hand tinted photograph. Artist Twozdai Hulse uses black and white photo-transfer on canvas with hand painted color details. Enjoy the show during tasting room hours.

What We Grow
--------------- Certified Organic U-Pick ---------------
About Us
simple pleasures. relax. enjoy.
Wilderbee is a certified organic, family-run farm specializing in u-pick lavender, flowers, and pumpkins.
We raise honeybees for pollination and a conservation flock of rare, primitive British Soay sheep for wool. During summer we distill lavender for essential oil ~ available at our farm store along with our lavender lotions and balms, blackberry blossom honey, bottles of mead, and unique woodcrafts made by Dad.
In 2019 we opened a meadery {The Mead Werks} at the farm ~ a production barn and tasting room specializing in small-batch traditional and barrel-aged meads.
Wilderbee is located in the scenic, historic seaport and arts community of Port Townsend on Washington's beautiful Olympic Peninsula. In 2011 we built Wilderbee as a destination with visitors in mind, to provide a relaxing place to explore and enjoy life's simple pleasures.
Feed the sheep. Pick a bouquet. Sip some mead. Walk our nature trails. Enjoy the day at Wilderbee.

Our Values
To laugh often and much.
To win the respect of intelligent people. To earn the appreciation of honest critics. To appreciate beauty. To find the best in others. To leave the world a bit better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition. To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.
