The Carden Alvar - Canada
A Natural Wonder and the Source of Our Rare Honey
Nestled near the entrance to the Prairie Smoke Alvar, our location offers an unparalleled connection to one of the world’s rarest ecosystems: the Carden Alvar. Alvars, found only in select regions such as the Great Lakes Basin and parts of Northern Europe, are extraordinary limestone plains that support unique and delicate biodiversity. The Carden Alvar is not only one of the largest but also one of the most significant remaining alvars on Earth.
A Sanctuary for Rare and Unique Flora
The Carden Alvar is a haven for plants that thrive nowhere else. Here, you can find:
• Kalm’s lobelia (Lobelia kalmii)
• Pringle’s aster (Symphyotrichum pilosum var. pringlei)
• Juniper sedge (Carex sp.)
• Lakeside daisy (Hymenoxys acaulis)
• Ram’s-head lady’s-slipper (Cypripedium arietinum)
• Dwarf lake iris (Iris lacustris)
Each of these species is a testament to the Alvar’s remarkable, fragile ecosystem.
The Essence of the Alvar in Every Drop of Honey
Our honey is as rare and precious as the Carden Alvar itself. Produced by bees foraging among the Alvar’s unique wildflowers, it captures the essence of this remarkable landscape. This honey is a tribute to the beauty and biodiversity of the Carden Alvar, making it unlike any other in the world.
