RE: A friend went through the exercise of being classified as an "Organic Honey Producer". One of the many requirements was to use foundation that was from a registered organic source.

I posted a message to this list a few months ago inquiring about Organic beekeeping procedures and if there actually are any beekeepers trying to adhere to such procedures. Noone ever responded. -- - - - - - - - - - - - - Peter Borst Dyce Honeybee Lab Cornell University Ithaca, NY 14853 [log in to unmask] phone: 607 275 0266 - - - - - - - - - - - - -
