Artisan Collective
Silver Creek Nursery is proud to collaborate with two beloved local makers—Mama Bear Quilts and Huckleberry Hive Honey—to celebrate craftsmanship, sustainability, and community.
Being an entrepreneur is a trait that runs deep in my family, including my parents, all my siblings, and nearly all aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents in their time. As 2026 unfolds, we are excited to share my mom's quilt artistry (Kim -Momma Bear's Quilts) and as well as my sister's creations (Jodi -Huckleberry Hives).
Rooted in a shared love for the natural world, this collaboration brings together thoughtfully harvested (and local) honey, beautifully handmade quilts, and a desire to grow together!
Mama Bear Quilts adds warmth and artistry through timeless, hand-stitched quilts made with care and intention, while Huckleberry Hive Honey contributes raw, golden honey that reflects the health of local landscapes and pollinators.
Together with Silver Creek Nursery’s commitment to nurturing trees and supporting pollinator-friendly practices, this partnership highlights the value of slow living, local sourcing, and meaningful connections.
By uniting garden, home, and harvest, this collaboration offers a heartfelt experience that honors tradition, supports small businesses, regenerative land practices and celebrates the richness of our local ecosystem.

Crafted with love and apple-y aplomb by Jodi at Huckleberry Hives! Jodi thought it would be fitting to honor this old apple in candle form so she made a mold using a real lady apple from Silver Creek Nursery!
- pure beeswax candle, colours created with candle dye
- candle size: 3.8cm wide by 2.5cm tall (1.5" x 1")
- approximate burn time 15 hours
🍎The Lady apple is synonymous with holidays and has a long history of use for decorating trees (ornaments or garlands) as well as use in wreath making.
🍎It is also known as Pomme d'Api - the oldest recognized apple variety under that name - originally documented during early Rome under Etruscan rule, around 700BC!!
🍎The first time it was called Lady was during the French Renaissance in 1628, and it became naturalized in America during the 1800's.
These candles can also be purchased with specialty greeting tags for teacher gifts, romantic gifts or wedding favours:
- "I'd apple-y be in your class forever."
- "You are the apple of my eye."
- "I'd apple-y be yours forever."
- "Appley ever after."
Unlike the mild heat of Sweet Heat honey, this small batch of Hot Hot Heat honey is a spicy heat that hits harder for the folks who have asked for something spicier! My customers at markets have described it as starting out mild, but building to a strong heat. Keep in mind that their samples were given as a small amount on a toothpick, so a normal spoonful will have a significant spice level!
I dried and blended my own home-grown hot peppers with my raw honey. Peppers used include:
- two tiny Armageddon peppers (around 1.3 million Scoville Heat Units (SHU))
- lots of Lemon Drop peppers (15,000 - 30,000 SHU)
- lots of Sugar Rush Peach peppers (50,000 - 100,000 SHU)
- lots of Habanero peppers (150,000 - 325,000 SHU)
- some Hungarian Wax peppers (1,000 - 15,000 SHU)
- some Ancho (1,000 - 2,000 SHU)

- pure beeswax
- 4.6cm wide by 6.4cm tall (1.8" x 2.5")
- approximate burn time 8-12 hours
This candle is a lovely nod to historical times when bee skeps were given to Dutch newlyweds, who paraded the skep through town in celebration. Keeping bees in skeps is a method from days of old, no longer in use due to the modern-day pests, such as varroa mites, that can overtake a hive. Skeps were made from grasses wound and tied into a domed shape.
Jammy & delicious for slathering onto warm toast, sweetening smoothies, drizzling over pancakes, and all the other yummy uses you can think of!
Aronia berries offer up a plethora of health benefits including fiber, vitamin C, and powerful antioxidants. Fresh raw Aronia berries are quite tannic and have a mouth-drying effect, but that didn't transfer to this creamed honey and it has a yummy jammy flavour.
Note: labels say 300g in photo, actual weight of honey is 350g (label to be updated in future!)
Raw honey blended with vanilla bean! This honey is sweet and delicious, with notes of vanilla and floral honey flavours. Perfect for use in tea as well as on scones, toast or other grain-based treats.
Combine these floating sunflower bee candles with flower petals to make a dreamy glowing floral and water centerpiece for any occasion!
- pure beeswax
- 5.08cm diameter x 1.27cm tall (2" x 0.5")
