Description
Chinook Honey Company & Chinook Arch Meadery is a small family run honeybee apiary. They are located south of Okotoks, near Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Chinook Honey Company opened its doors for retail honey sales just south of Okotoks in June of 2004. In 2007 mead (honey wine) was added to their product line. Since then the reputation of both Chinook Honey Company and Chinook Arch Meadery has spread. Natural, pure honey and fine mead are our specialties.
