About Carmel Honey Company:
Jake Reisdorf is the owner of Carmel Honey Company. The business began as part of a school project when Jake’s 5th grade teacher was trying to get the class to think about the future. The teacher assigned professions to each student and directed them to research the profession, duties, compensation, etc. and return to class with a presentation to share their findings.
While researching his assigned profession of website designer, Jake, 11 years old at the time, decided to take it one step further and actually create a real website. At that time, Jake had taken one beekeeping class with his Dad and thought it would be cool to design a website about honey bees.
Not only did Jake get an “A” on the project, but it inspired him to start Carmel Honey Company.
Jake’s passion for honey bees grew as he learned about Colony Collapse Disorder and the benefits of real honey. Expanding his research and education drove Jake to learn more about honey and bees and ultimately decide it was critical to give back.
His “Jake Gives Back” program includes sharing honey bee knowledge with kids and adults of all ages. Whether he’s speaking to the Second Lady of the United States of America, a classroom of first-grade students, or at a corporate event talking with business owners and seasoned professionals, his passion and appreciation of how honey bees impact our world is infectious. CHC also “gives back” by making an annual financial donation to a honey bee research or education organization. So when you purchase something from Carmel Honey Company YOU are giving back to the honey bee.
Jake is currently 17 years old and a Junior at Carmel High School. When not attending class he, with the help of his family, manages his bee hives, works the retail stores, maintains connections with his honey wholesale accounts and processes online orders placed through his website from honey lovers all over the country. But his visionary retail stores are only the beginning for Jake. He’s now setting his sights on a state of the art, interactive, kid-friendly Pollination Center. A place where visitors can learn more about the key pollinators; birds, bats, butterflies & bees and discover why pollination is so important, not only our ecosystem but to our livelihood as human beings.
Since founding the company, Jake has won several awards, including SCORE Young Entrepreneur and CSUMB Start Up Challenge Winner in 2016; Young Beekeeper of the Year in 2017; California Small Business of the Year in 2018; SBDC Rising Star in 2019.
