ETA: this is just an fyi from an article passed on to me. In no way do I claim this to be correct or not, unhealthy or healthy.

    Good article. I buy locally harvested honey. It has helped my husband with his allergies and I like to support local businesses.

    I already buy local as well, but I just thought some might be interested in reading what they think they are getting.

    This isn't suprising at all. That is why I buy mine by the half gallon at the local farmers market. I also buy bee pollen to mix into my morning smoothie.

    I always buy local honey and I've heard of a bee keeper not far away that I'm going to visit.:indifferent:
