No, that’s not what it means. Organic farms are controlled and are certified as such. You can’t keep bees from going farms that are not certified as organic. They may get pollen from your organic clover that can be contaminated with bees from outside that area. It’s not where they get pollen (i.e apple or clover) but whether it’s certified organic. Next farm over may not be.

Confirming my point I think. you can’t prove all the honey in clover honey comes from clover and you can’t prove all the bee activity in organic honey was connected to organic fields.
