Local Honey Production

We support and encourage sustainable, traditional honey production, by buying raw honey and processing it. Kerry Glen established Ewaso River Honey in 1995, purchasing local honey from Samburu and Lakipia Masai in northern Kenya. She sieves, cleans, packages and delivers this honey to markets in Nairobi employing many local people and allowing the honey gatherers to sell their product to a much larger market.

Wild & Sustainable

The honey in our area is dependent on wild habitat and it is a sustainable business that produces honey of the highest quality. Acacia mellifera is our best flowering shrub making a white crystalline honey that is very popular. Because we preserve a great deal of Acacia mellifera the area can produce many tons of honey encouraging a sustainable business and helping to combat the threat of charcoal cutting.
