Tom Cosman and Mary Ann Whidden run over 2000 honeybee colonies from a farm at 9925 Highway 1 in Greenwich, in the Annapolis Valley, and sell liquid honey, creamed honey and honey in the comb, plus beeswax candles and blueberry and apple pollination.
The liquid, creamed and comb honey Cosman and Whidden pack in Greenwich is natural honey, HTS 0409.00.00 on the CBP Section 338 list, a line that has carried a 50% US duty since August 22, 2026. The farm has no online shop; it sells through its own store front, Nova Scotia farmers' markets and grocers, and its public pages carry no notice about American orders, so what the duty has cost it is not stated.Source: content.govdelivery.com, Aug 22, 2026
Made in Canada
The honey comes off their own Nova Scotia hives and is packed on the farm: "Our bees gather nectar from meadows and orchards, from mountains and valleys, across Nova Scotia", bottled in what the site calls "our clean and modern bottling facility".
