Food Product & Allergy Disclaimer

At Desert Farms Apiary, we are committed to producing high-quality honey and hive-based products using responsible beekeeping practices. Because our products are derived from natural agricultural sources, customers should carefully review the following information before purchasing or consuming our products.

Product Variability

Honey is a natural product produced by honeybees from seasonal nectar sources. Variations in color, flavor, aroma, texture, moisture content, and crystallization are normal and expected. These natural variations do not affect the quality, safety, or authenticity of the product.

Product photographs and descriptions are provided for general reference and may not exactly represent the appearance of a specific batch.

Raw Honey Warning

Raw honey should not be consumed by infants under one (1) year of age.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommend that honey not be given to infants younger than twelve months due to the risk of infant botulism.

Allergy Notice

Honey, beeswax, pollen, propolis, royal jelly, and other hive products may cause allergic reactions in some individuals.

Individuals with known allergies or sensitivities to:

• Honey

• Bee pollen

• Beeswax

• Propolis

• Royal jelly

• Bee stings

• Other bee-related products

should consult a qualified healthcare professional before using or consuming our products.

Customers are solely responsible for determining whether products are suitable for their personal dietary needs, allergies, sensitivities, or medical conditions.

Skin Care Products

Candles, soaps, balms, lotions, and other topical products may contain beeswax, honey, pollen, propolis, essential oils, fragrances, botanical ingredients, or other naturally derived materials.

Customers should review ingredient information carefully and discontinue use immediately if irritation, redness, discomfort, or an allergic reaction occurs.

A patch test is recommended prior to first use of any skin care product.

Food Safety & Storage

For best quality:

• Store honey in a cool, dry location.

• Keep containers tightly sealed.

• Avoid excessive heat and direct sunlight.

• Do not refrigerate honey unless specifically instructed.

Crystallization is a natural process and does not indicate spoilage. Crystallized honey may be gently warmed in warm water to restore a liquid consistency.
