Accessibility Statement
Last Updated: March 4th, 2026
At Local Honey, we want everyone in our Anytown neighborhood to feel welcome, whether you are visiting our apiary in person or browsing our digital hive online. John and Jane Smith are committed to ensuring our website is accessible to all neighbors, regardless of ability or technology.
Our Commitment to the Community
Just as we strive to keep our honey raw, honest, and "straight from the hive," we strive to keep our website transparent and easy to navigate for everyone. We are working to apply relevant accessibility standards to improve the user experience for all our visitors.
Measures to Support Accessibility
Local Honey takes the following measures to ensure accessibility on our website:
- Clear Structure: Using proper headings and lists so that our "More From the Hive" products and "Why Local Honey?" sections are easy to read with assistive technology.
- Color Contrast: Using our brand colors—like Dark Navy for headlines and Charcoal Gray for body text—to ensure high visibility and readability against our Pale Cream and white backgrounds.
- Alt Text: Providing descriptive text for our artisanal photography, such as our images of golden honeycomb and sunlit hives, so every neighbor can understand the story behind our honey.
- Keyboard Navigation: Ensuring that our "SHOP HONEY" buttons and navigation menus can be accessed without a mouse.
Conformance Status
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 level AA. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with a wide array of disabilities.
Feedback and Contact Information
We are always learning and looking for ways to improve our small family operation. If you encounter any "sticky" spots on our website or have trouble accessing any part of our online shop, please let us know so we can fix it.

Assessment Disclaimer
While we do our best to monitor the site regularly, Local Honey is a small-batch, family-run apiary. We appreciate your patience as we work to keep our digital presence as healthy and accessible as our honeybees.
