Bee Healthy Honey Shop is a family owned business which started in Yemen over four generations ago. We have over 100 years of experience in learning all there is to know about bees and natural honey preparation process. We take personal care and pride in preparing natural pure quality honey. We strive to find new ways of preparing honey that are conducive to the natural environment.
Our beekeeper Khaled Almaghafi has been tending bees since he was 5 years old. His father was a beekeeper, So is his younger brother in Yemen. Bees are in his blood. He came to the United States of America in 1986 and moved straight to California because everyone in Yemen knows that California is good environment for agriculture and bees. He had hopes of attending UC Davis to study bees but could not afford it. Instead, he ended up at a gas station as a clerk. He hated it. Every day rude customers would sting his pride, and with a wife and two small children, he was not earning enough, money to make a living.
One day in 1992, our beekeeper Khaled Almaghafi opened the Yellow Pages and looked under the heading Bee Removal. He found a beekeeper near his home in Oakland who let him join on his jobs. When the beekeeper died a few years ago, he inherited his business and his wooden vacuum box. Billions of bees later, he still finds them fascinating.Back To Top
