Our Story

“From a dream to reality…”

Sunrise Hives is located in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota.

Owner, Kiah pours and manufactures all products by hand. Foraging locally for medicinal herbs in the Black Hills National Forest, Kiah creates different infusions used in her product. She also works with local schools providing an “Importance of Bees” talk. Children get to learn all about what beekeepers do as well as hear about what’s impacting bees and what they can do to help. Kiah strongly believes in the education of children, as they are our future. She recently began speaking to adult groups as well.

Sunrise Hives take pride in providing 100% raw-unfiltered honey. Every product is hand-bottled in Spearfish, South Dakota. Sunrise Hives also produces All-Natural Body Products and 100% Pure Beeswax Candles. Every product is hand-poured, hand-labeled, and produced in small batches insuring consistency and quality with every batch. Sunrise Hives uses 100% all-natural ingredients that are, when possible, organic or wildcrafted from sustainable sources, no preservatives or artificial ingredients EVER!

What is raw, unfiltered honey?

Raw, unfiltered honey means nothing is taken out and is never pasteurized, leaving all the healthy enzymes, propolis bits, and pollen behind. When honey becomes solid and crystallizes, you know that your honey hasn’t been processed or overheated in the bottling process. Raw, unfiltered honey undergoes natural processes like crystallization because the honey remains 100% pure and natural.
