Scott Jackson and Carlos Hambleton have been beekeeping together for over 25 years. What began as a shared hobby eventually grew into a passion-fueled business. In 2009, as the demand for raw, local honey continued to rise, they officially launched Texas Raw Honey. What started with just 4 to 6 retail locations has now grown into a thriving operation, currently serving between 80 and 90 vendors in and around the Fort Worth area.
Early on, Scott and Carlos sold their honey at local farmers markets and health food stores. As interest in raw honey expanded, they partnered with another experienced beekeeper in the brush country of South Texas to increase their supply while maintaining the high standards of quality and purity that customers had come to expect.
With over three decades of combined beekeeping experience, they take pride in producing and distributing honey that is truly raw, unfiltered, and Texas-sourced. Their business primarily supports small, independent “mom and pop” shops—keeping their roots close to the community and the land.
Carlos brings a scientific edge to the work with degrees in zoology and botany. His professional background includes leading the engineering service group at Lockwood Irrigation Systems in Nebraska, where he worked with agricultural equipment such as circle crop and potato harvesters, tree shakers, orchid sprayers, and pecan sorting tables. He’s also a dedicated gardener and plant enthusiast.
Scott, a retired public school teacher, brings a background in education and entrepreneurship, having run several small businesses. His steady leadership and attention to detail help keep the operation running smoothly day to day.
Together, Carlos and Scott have built Texas Raw Honey on a foundation of hard work, deep knowledge, and genuine love for beekeeping—delivering quality honey and supporting small businesses across Texas.

Bee pollen contains proteins and is a rich source of antioxidants, it boosts immune system, reduces inflammation, supports energy and stamina, aids in allergy relief, supports cardiovascular health, and helps with wound healing.
Not all raw honey is organic, and not all organic honey is raw. Raw honey simply means it's unprocessed and unpasteurized, while organic honey means it comes from bees that forage on organically grown plants and are managed without synthetic chemicals.
We do not claim our raw honey to be organic because our honey comes from free ranged bee's that can travel miles from the hive.
