Fellow beekeepers:
 
A local newspaper had a nice article on honey.
 
Under the title picture there was this statement:
 
"There are some 211,600 beekeepers in the US.  THanks to them and the
honeybees, there are more than 300 types of honey available"
 
Are these figures accurate?  How does one go about doing a census on
beekeepers? And the different types of honey?
