## How to find a good, real local honey producer
It's quite simple! Start by clicking the "Start here" button (at the top of every page or on the left menu). You then select your local area (country, state/province) and then region/county or local metropolitan area. Just scroll down the page that appears, to see honey producers listed by county.
Items of special interest, such as organic, special events are highlighted in colors to make them stand out.
The search engine (see the button at the top of each page) can be helpful, too.
Note: we don't consider resellers who do not produce honey to be a local honey source, unless that reseller is the only venue by which a beekeeper sells his or her honey.

## More about honey and bees
Honey is a by-product of flower nectar and the upper aero-digestive tract of the honey bee, which is concentrated through a dehydration process inside the bee hive. Honey has a very complex chemical composition that varies depending on the botanical source. It has been used both as food and medicine since ancient times. Human use of honey is traced to some 8000 years ago as depicted by Stone Age paintings
