Celebrating 45 years of Dutchman's Gold (1981โ€“2026)! ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ‰

We were so honoured to be invited to the 4th Annual Dutchmanโ€™s Gold Hive Walk & Plant Tour on June 3rd at the farm in Millgrove, Ontario! This perfect day involved:

๐Ÿ A guided hive walk with Founder & Master Beekeeper John and his daughter, Angela (VP Sales & Marketing)
๐Ÿ A behind-the-scenes look at their honey and bee pollen production facility
๐Ÿ A native wildflower planting activity
๐Ÿ Conversations around sustainability, transparency and regenerative agriculture
๐Ÿ A wonderful lunch on the farm!

Fruits, vegetables, spices, and raw materials โ€” did you know that it is thanks to pollinators that you can enjoy or use these various foods? Scientists estimate that one in three bites of food we eat is made possible by pollinators. Climate change and agriculture are the top threats to both bees as well as pollinators in general. There are other stressors acting against pollinators, such as invasive species, pollution and disease, and their effects combine with each other making matters worse. However, we are not powerless against their decline.

Since day one, the Van Alten family has worked tirelessly to help build the Canadian beekeeping industry, which in turn, supports our precious pollinators. To this day, honeybees can be found on their 100-acre farm in Hamilton, Ontario, tirelessly carrying out their work while their founder remains heavily involved in the Canadian beekeeping industry. When you buy Dutchman's Gold, you support Canadian pollinators and a better future for all.

Dutchman's Gold is also continuing to scale their national Letโ€™s Plantโ„ข initiative in partnership with Sierra Club Canada, with a goal of planting 10 million native pollinator-friendly seeds across the country in 2026.
