Is the honey harvested by a local, or are they buying it elsewhere and bringing it to the market?

Eating local honey that has not been overly filtered will help with seasonal allergies, as you will be ingesting the pollen and building a resistance. Some producers will filter the honey for clarity, which removes most of the beneficial pollen.

For that reason, I buy from a local farm where they collect the honey year round. Before canning the honey, they blend it so that every jar contains the pollen from every season.
