Hummer & Son Honey
Hummer and Son Honey was started by the late Stanley F. Hummer and son, William S. Hummer, as a 4-H project in 1985. As the years went on, Stanley F.
Hummer built up the company and William Hummer went on to further his education. In 1996, William Hummer graduated from Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge with a Bachelor of Science in Urban Pest Management and a minor in Entomology. He is past-president of the Louisiana Beekeepers Association. Upon his return from LSU, Hummer & Son began to pack their honey for retail sale. Hummer & Son no

The bees are waking from a long winter slumber. The trees and plants are starting to produce pollen, so it is the perfect time to start eating local honey.
You Won't Bee-lieve the Health Benefits of Raw, Local Honey I've always heard that eating local honey was good for folks with allergies, but I didn't know it could do all of this! Here's the buzz thanks to Hummer and Son Honey Farm in Bossier City, LA.

It is Market time at the festival plaza for the Shreveport Farmers' Market. Come down before it gets to hot and grab some chili infused honey, a slab of comb honey, or just a little bear for those times you need a quick jolt of energy.
Honey flowing into the tanks to settle out. The wax and other impurities will float to the top of the vat. This allows us to bottle the honey with little straining to ensure you get the true taste of 100% pure Louisiana Honey!
Busy as bees we are today at Hummer & Son labeling bears for our customers. We hope you enjoy all the hard work our bees do for us to offer you 100% Pure Louisiana Honey!
