🎂 TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY! 🎂

And for my birthday, I finally get to share something I've been dreaming about for years.

For over 4 years, y'all have asked me one question:

"WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO SHIP YOUR HONEY?"

Well... today is the day. 🍯💜 after almost 5 years of beekeeping 🥺❤️

Behind the scenes, my mom, my family, and I have been working nonstop to make this happen. Filling jars, tying bows, packing boxes, designing labels, and bringing this little dream to life one honey jar at a time. The kids helped separate boxes & label jars even though we have a typo 😫🤣 them kids baldheaded daddy help fabricate honey buckets for honey collection. Everybody truly pitched in the last couple months to make this happen by my birthday 🥺 I'm so thankful. 

Today I'm releasing a very limited number, let me repeat 😫😭 I'm a small ass farmer, so very limited 😭 this is our first ever honey gift sets from Upendo Estates Farm. And first time I'm shipping glass in the mail lol so much went into every part of this project. 

Each gift set includes: 🍯 Raw Unfiltered Honey 🍯 our famous Honey Cream 🍯 Wooden Honey Spoon

This collection is especially close to my heart because it's called The Lavi Honey Collection.

After losing my daughter, Lavender, I stopped bringing her up as often because I hated watching the sadness that followed. For years, I dreamed of creating something in her honor. I even tried planting fields of lavender 💜 only plant i can't keep alive 😭

Instead, I decided to name our honey collection after her.

Now her nickname, "Lavi," will be spoken year after year, summer after summer, as families gather around biscuits, tea, charcuterie boards, and kitchen tables across the country.

Thank you for supporting this Black-owned farm,  and our family. 

Happy Birthday to me & Lavi honey. 💜🐝🍯
