>Don't know where they are actually buying it from.

My guess would be Argentina or Brazil. The organic certification would be
simple to get for those countries beekeepers if you knew which palm to
grease.

The "organic honey" could come in with D---- G---'s regular shipment of
honey.

I doubt China as China has no "pure honey" standards although some Chinese
are trying to get standards set like we have in the U.S.. You can legally
sell honey cut with fructose in China.

All packers want is to be able to use the word "organic". Did members of the
"organic honey" movement really believe packers were going to sit by and
watch you steal their market and spread the word that their honey is
inferior?

Packers will each have an "organic label" in stores if things go as planned.
They will still sell regular honey but will want to control the "organic
honey" market. They will set the price in stores. The packers will toss
organic beekeepers the small niche markets and farm sales in my opinion. The
organic label could give packers the entrance into U.S.  health food stores
they have wanted for a long time.
