How It All Began...
Following many years of university and graduate school – Mike's love for nature and bees brought him to the Allegheny Mountain foothills, and in 2008 he started keeping bees.
Today, he's the Founder of a regenerative honeybee farm in Upstate New York, and a raw/unfiltered honey company specializing in premium quality, varietal honeys. Under The Sun Honey has joined the New York State Grown and Certified program - look for the seal, it tells a story.
At our regenerative honey farm, we harvest and pack the finest raw, varietal honey. Our apiary is non migratory, HFCS-free, pesticide-free, antibiotics-free and the honey we harvest have no hard chemical treatments.
Invest in Your Health
We offer the purest, most naturally raised raw honey available. Many honeys on the market are contaminated with corn syrup and medications used to combat honeybee illnesses. Under the Sun Honey is the rare exception! Packed with nature’s pollen, enzymes, and amino acids...
"What is in these jars is merely the surplus honey from my bees and it sits on my family’s table each day."
-Michael (Mike) Piatek, Beekeeper and Founder

Under the Sun Honey is produced by bees kept in the wildflower fields of the Alleghenies; they live there year round and are never treated with harsh chemicals. Our bees live in full sun, drink water from clean mountain springs, and collect pollen and nectar from nature's provisions.
