do the Europeans have any restrictions on apiary location. You
> know...like we do. Bees must be 2 miles from population centers of 3500, 
> state roads, active farms, dumps, golf courses, etc, etc?


Hi I'm an organic veg grower in the UK my bees cannot be classified as 
Organic as they need to be situated in the centre of a 2mile radius of 
organic land  (or virgin territory). As far as I know their are no certified 
organic beekeepers in England, I suppose it may be possible in some parts of 
North Scotland with very large organic upland farms but I am not aware of 
any.

The rule in the EU are the same across all the countries.
