Today, the Van Drunen commitment to providing the highest quality ingredients to local, national and international food manufacturers is unchanged. 

Dutch Gold Honey

In 1946, when Ralph Gamber bought three beehives at a farm sale, his intention was to rekindle his childhood fascination with bees and sell honey to his neighbors in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
