About Us
Rick Reault is the owner and operator of New England Beekeeping, Carlisle Honey, and Honeybound Meadery. Rick has been keeping bees for 20 years. We are a small commercial beekeeping company, enjoying our 10th year of business. Our company runs 500 hives located in Central and Eastern Massachusetts as well as Southern New Hampshire and Vermont. New England Beekeeping provides strong hives for successful pollination to local growers. Our hives are managed and maintained in New England and do not travel South. Although our winters are challenging for honeybees, our bees are hardy and have a high success rate of overwintering. When Springtime arrives, our bees are full of energy and ready to work the early blossoms. This allows us, as beekeepers, to stay fairly close to home year-round.
Practices
Carlisle Honey is raw and unheated. Our honey is not filtered. When extracting our honey we strain the honey to remove floating particles such as dead bees and wax. This does not in anyway compromise the ingredients or the integrity of the honey that the bees naturally produced.
Honeybees can easily forage on flowers up to 2 miles. Our bees forage in and around the following towns in more than 50 different locations.
Eastern Massachusetts: Tyngsboro, Westford, Chelmsford, Dracut, Groton, Lowell, Dunstable, Carlisle, Andover, Methuen, Haverhill, Littleton, Maynard
Central Massachusetts: Lunnenburg, Fitchburg, Pepperell
Southeast Massachusetts: Achushnet, Lakeville, Freetown, Middleboro, Rochester, Taunton
Southern New Hampshire: Nashua, Pelham, Hudson, Amherst, Hollis
Vermont: Dummerston, Brattleboro
