Apparently stores are going to run out of British honey by Christmas as
there is such a shortage of honey bees now. Bad news for honey-lovers and
for gardeners. ;-(


Another problem is that Chinese honey is being exported under the names of
other countries. There are also some problems with adulteration,
especially as prices go up due to hive failures and fuel costs.

After running out of UK honey, make sure you buy Canadian{;-)
Did you know that the hives in the Peace River area are the most productive
in the world?

Disease free?



I read something about it possibly being due to mobile phone masts. In
whcih case Cuba should be covered in bees as they've only just started
allowing them there.
