Our Story
Charles and Marline Balbach entered the commercial beekeeping world by establishing Flowing Gold Apiaries. Charles was born in Brazil and Marline in Germany, but she grew up in Canada. The two fell in love, leading to their marriage in 1981, and Marline moved to California where they began their life together. Years later in 2008, and adding two little boys into the mix, Flowing Gold Apiaries was established. We believe that it is a God-given company built on honesty and integrity, and through the opportunities it provides, we love making new and wonderful connections all across the country! Flowing Gold Apiaries has seen many changes over the years, but now focuses on providing pollination services and producing 100% PURE HONEY. Since the birth of the business until now, their two sons, Andrew and Jared, have become more and more involved in the operations of the family beekeeping business.
The whole Balbach family is committed to providing you the best in “farm to table” products. We all share a commitment to a philosophy in ascertaining the pedigree of food – knowing where your groceries come from and how they are cared for along their path to your mouth… Which means, you do not have to worry about anything fishy with our honey! We aim to meet your high standards of flavor, health and quality with every last drop. We also try our best to suit your needs by having our products in stock, and we usually ship within 1-2 business days.
