I sent an email to Dutch Gold asking about the origin of their Organic
Honey.  Here, verbatim, is the answer I got:

 

Good Day,

 

Dutch Gold's Organic honey comes from remote areas of Brazil and Mexico that
have remained untainted.  Bee hives are placed in these unspoiled regions
that offer the honey bees at least a two-mile radius of "organic" foliage
and fauna.  Sufficient quantities of domestic honey are limited due to the
USDA (National Organic Program - NOP) organic requirements of the two-mile
radius as described above.  Dutch Gold will not accept "organic" honey
without the NOP certification.

 

If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me, via reply
e-mail.  

 

Best regards,
