Yamada Bee Farm (Yamada Yohojo) is a Japanese beekeeping company from Kagamino in Okayama Prefecture.

Yamada Bee Farm (Yamada Yohojo) is a Japanese beekeeping company from Kagamino in Okayama Prefecture. Its history begins in 1948, when founder Masao Yamada bought native honey bees in Tokushima and began keeping them. Besides honey, the company makes other bee products and foods.

Its honey ranges are Japanese Satoyama honeys (acacia, buckwheat, renge, linden, wildflower and others), selected imported honeys, rare honeys and comb honey (sumitsu). The company also sells fruit preserved in honey, honey drinks and honey sweets.

Why this matters to you: Yamada separates its Japanese Satoyama honeys from imported ones, so the range name shows whether a jar holds Japanese honey.
