Silver Wheel Cellars

Check out this cool little fairy ring! Patterns in nature are the foundations of folklore! 🍄‍🟫💚🍯🥂

It’s like all the birds join together in welcoming a new day of life. They taper off after 10-15 minutes but when the full chorus is singing it is so beautiful to witness. What if we could all start our days together with positive affirmations and songs of joyous praise to be able to savor another day of life? This whole Earth would vibrate differently. Makes you wonder.

Sweet news, friends 🥂

If you’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to stock up, this is it—Silver Wheel Cellars is about to drop a limited-time special: 4 packs of our handcrafted mead for $100… and yes, we’re throwing in a dope shirt too 😎

Whether you’re celebrating wins, manifesting your next chapter, or just love a smooth, sweet pour, this one’s for you.

Spots are limited for this uniquely curated mead experience, so if you want in, let us know below or shoot us a message 🍯✨

Here’s to an abundant season 🍯🥂

These black locust blossoms are all out right now and anytime you get near a tree with these cascading white flowers you’ll know immediately. Their delicate floral notes definitely add to the quality level of our local honey in this region. We are lucky to be able to use such delicious honey for our meads and oxymels. 🍯🥂

Wild fermentation of honey and wildflowers. Negligible ABV (less than kombucha). Wildly floral and light. Would you be interested in a wildflower soda making session??

So many other essential steps along the way but this is it! If you’re interested in making your very own batch of mead, follow so you know when we launch our mead making class. Or just to taste a variety of meads and learn about their history and heritage, look out for our Mead 101 tasting/story time.

And if you can make it to the Apple Blossom Cider Festivalthis Saturday in Frederick, MD we would love to share some ciders and meads and make some new friends!

When we use ingredients that only come out during particular seasons, it by default will align us with the rhythms of Nature. Every spring, I cherish the opportunity to work with the wild violets, and we make simple syrups, popsicles, sometimes a small batch of mead or two, and sometimes we just throw the flowers and leaves into our salads! What are some of the things that you love to find and use during the spring time?

We enjoyed our own private concert while the many visitors focused on photo shoots of blossoms and monuments and each other. This guy sang his little heart out! It’s good to feel that way!

Looking for a volunteer or two for the Apple blossom cider festival on Saturday, April 11. Let me know if you’d like to join us and pour some ciders and meads and get a shirt and bottle of your choice 🍯🥂

From a week ago… two very unique specimens!
🍄‍🟫❤️

Stay tuned to hear about a small batch of mushroom infused mead! 🍄‍🟫🍯🥂

Have a great weekend and check in tomorrow to hear about our Spring Equinox specials!

No wonder Saffron is so expensive! Each individual stigma from the flowers is plucked by hand. To be sure, these early blooming crocuses we see now are not the kind that you would harvest Saffron from.
