RE: Learning the Art of Beekeeping -- Part Six

It is incredible what variety there is in honey flavors. To be officially classified as a specific type of honey, for instance as "orange honey" the beehive must be placed such that the bees will collect the vast majority of their nectar and pollen from the specific flowers. If the bees can access different types of flowers then it is just considered either wild honey or honey.

That is so cool!
Next time I go to the local bee farm/store to buy raw honey for my soapmaking, I am going to really read the labels now.
