About E&M Gold Beekeepers |
| Hello. We're Ed & Mary Kosenski. Our joint beekeeping experience began in 1997 when we moved to Tinton Falls, NJ and purchased our first colony of bees. |
| Shortly after our move to Tinton Falls, we had seen the Peter Fonda movie, Ulee's Gold, which is about a beekeeper in Florida who pulls his troubled family back together all the while he is collecting tupelo honey from his bee hives. |
| The next day Ed called to say we would be picking up our first beehive from a beekeeper in Vineland, NJ. Since that first hive we have grown to 100 hives. For the past seven years we have been working towards developing a stronger honeybee using natural methods and by breeding honeybee queens! |
| We are licensed from the New Jersey Department of Agriculture to use the Jersey Fresh logo on our New Jersey products. We offer an early season Jersey Fresh wildflower honey called Spring Blossoms (April-June nectar), a mid-summer Jersey Fresh wildflower honey called Summer Gardens (June- July nectar) and a Jersey Fresh fall wildflower honey called Red Bank Raw (August - October nectar). |
| We also offer several Jersey Fresh varietal honeys; cranberry, blueberry and Dutch clover honey. And since we are always listening to our customers we now carry buckwheat, tupelo and orange blossom honeys. In addition we now offer honey wedding favors and bridal shower favors. |
| Mary comes from an agricultural family in which her father was a sideline beekeeper in Maryland and Georgia. In addition early in her career while working at the Beltsville Agriculture Research Center in Beltsville, Maryland, Mary worked with bees. She carries on the family tradition and then some since in addition to running the honey side of E&M Gold she runs the beeswax side of E&M Gold Beekeepers; creating beeswax wedding favors, formal beeswax candles, beeswax figurine candles, beeswax plaques and beeswax hand creams and beeswax lip balms. |
| We are active members of the New Jersey Beekeepers Association (NJBA), the Central Jersey Beekeepers Association (CJBA). We also belong to the American Honey Producers Association (AHPA), the Northeast Organic Farming Association (NOFA), and the National Honey Board (NHB). In addition we give educational talks and presentations at schools, associations and county fairs. |
