To say that Uncommon Bees is a bee farm makes it sound like all you can expect to buy here is honey. Looking at Uncommon Bee's wide range of products will convince you that they really know what they are doing and that they are very good at it. And very creative and very entrepreneurial too, since they saw this very big potential in a bee farm. They saw the opportunity to produce items you do not typically find in large quantities made by various manufacturers. More than creating a demand, it created an opportunity, so that people can experience it. All of these and keeping the bees' best interest at heart.

Jenschke Farms is a beautiful farm located in the Texas Hill Country. It was purchased by Ruby and Eugine Jenschke in 1947. It is now owned and operated by their son, Billy Jenschke. One day he decided to follow his dream and start small truck farming in the early 1970's and by 1992 he opened a small produce store in Kerrville Texas. Unfortunately, after 28 great years, he had to close the store and has now created an online business. Most of the products that they carry on their online store are made in Texas and made with produce sourced locally. Their pickled okra are made from okras grown right there at the farm. They also carry new crop pecans from Junction, Texas and their canned peaches and peach cider are made from peaches from Stonewall, Texas.
