Local Honey is better!!
Perhaps you have heard that local honey is better... We couldn't agree more!
For centuries honey has been used for its healing properties, as well as it's sweetness. People use honey help with alergies, heal wounds, assist with digestive issues and to boost energy. Honey is also a great immunity system builder and a natural remedy for many ailments.
All honey also has the unique benifit of having microscopic inclusions of the flora (pollen) in a given area. However, unlike mass produced store bought honey, local honey is not filtered to the point of removing these beneficial elements. Store bought honey is also not specific to any region or even country.
The next time you are at the store, pick up a jar of "brand name" honey. You should notice some two or three letter codes stamped on the bottle. These are the country codes for where the honey is from. For instance: BR = Brazil, AR = Argentina, CA = Canada, and yes CH = China. Talk about really not knowing your beekeeper!
Another problem with store bought honey is that it is homogonized (blended), so you will have honey from more than one agricultural area and yes, even country. Combining this with the pasturization (heating above 165 degrees) process that mass produced honey undergoes, by the time you buy that honey from the store, you have ended up with just another sweetener with very little benificial properties left.
True local raw honey is just that; honey raw from the comb the way nature intended it. Honey is the only food produced by insects, it never spoils and can be eaten without modification striaight from the hive. That is how we bottle it at Ozarks Honey Company, straight from the hive! Add that to the simple pleasure of knowing that we do not use chemicals to treat our bees for pests or disease and you know the product you receive is 100% pure!
Taste the difference and you will see that local honey really is better, not just for you, but in taste and quality as well.
