Big D’s Bees Honey is a family-owned and operated commercial beekeeping and Honey Distribution Company. In 2007, Daniel Ludwig (Aka: Big D) started the company at the age of 22. Having dairy farming in his background, Daniel loved the land and what it provides for mankind. Honey bees are an essential part of our food source and being on Vancouver Island where our natural habitat is abundant, makes it a very unique honey-producing area.
