The Story of Valhalla Bee Farm
A Nebraska Family Tradition
Valhalla Bee Farm is a family-owned apiary and creative studio rooted in the belief that some things are worth doing the slow, honest way. Our honey has become a staple of the Nebraska agriculture community, and you can find our signature labels on the shelves of your favorite local grocers—including Hy-Vee, Russ’s Market, and Super Saver.
While our bees are hard at work in various apiaries throughout the Nebraska countryside, our shop in Lincoln is where it all comes together. We aren’t just a retail business; we are dedicated beekeepers and artisans. Our shop serves as a unique regional hub where you can find 100% pure Nebraska honey, expert beekeeping gear, and Jane’s curated collection of fine lace and needlework supplies.
Whether you are a first-year beekeeper picking up your first veil or a neighbor looking for thread for your next project, you are stepping into a local tradition built on integrity, expertise, and a genuine passion for the craft.
Stop by during our shop hours—we’d love to help you find exactly what you’re looking for.

Valhalla Bee Farm
A Foundation of Integrity
Valhalla Bee Farm was built on a simple but powerful mission: to protect the integrity of Nebraska honey. For years, our family has been at the forefront of the beekeeping community, advocating for the purity of the craft.
Our commitment to “Real Honey” isn’t just a marketing slogan. We believe that in a world of “funny honey” and blended syrups, you deserve the real thing. When you buy from Valhalla, you support local beekeepers who are working to produce pure honey.
Our Promise
We don’t use fancy buzzwords or complex labels. We stick to what we know: Pure Honey, Healthy Bees, and Honest Work. Whether you’re here for a jar of our pure, local honey or your very first hive, you’re part of the Valhalla family.
