Tampa Gold Honey comes from off the beaten Path. Most Honey people buy honey from supermarket shelves these days, as just another grocery item. The mystique of premium honeys, each with its own signature blend of flavors, has faded to a distant memory in the wake of our drive-thru lifestyle.
Our Local Tampa Honey is as much a treasure, a gem to be cherished and appreciated. Our Honey recaptures the art of savoring honey flavors.
Tampa Gold Honey comes from the Wildernesses
A wilderness is an area of land that has been largely undisturbed by
modern human development. Wilderness areas usually lack roads,
buildings, and other artificial structures. This provides a natural
environment for Producing Honey at its Finest.
Far from Houses,Buildings.
Honey rich with Pollen.

Many have asked why not state or have our Honey certified ORGANIC.
1 . FIRST OF ALL NO BEE KEEPER IS AWARE OF THE TRAVELS OF EACH BEE.
2
. Any USA Certified Organic honey sold in the United States is imported
from other countries and certified organic by that country. ... A US
beekeeper can have non-certified organic honey that is raised
organically. But it is nearly impossible to produce organic honey.
3.
Currently, to be certified organic, honey must meet the general USDA
organic standards. But there aren't yet requirements specific to honey.
USDA does have recommended guidelines, but an actual organic standard
for honey has been in the works since 2001.

FARMS' TOXIC COCKTAILS YIELD CROPS, SURPRISES
When pilot Robert Coffey flew across Florida, just above treetop level checking on telephone lines for a phone company in the 1980s, pesticides would drip from the wings of his airplane at the end of the day.
The sticky spray came from flying over citrus groves. Clouds of chemicals rising from the fields covered the aircraft with a fine, toxic mist.
"It was so thick it came off in globs," said Coffey, 72, of Winter Park.
The residue that dripped from Coffey's plane was the proverbial drop in a bucket of chemicals - a huge bucket - that Florida farmers employ every year to ward off insects and disease from their crops.
WE DO NOT SELL ORANGE BLOSSOM HONEY FOR THAT REASON.

WHY Untreated HONEY
Because pasteurization exposes the honey to high temperatures, it may destroy or remove honey's natural properties. This means that raw honey may offer more powerful health benefits, in terms of healing wounds and fighting infections, than regular honey. Many studies have found that raw honey has health benefits
Untreated honey is only strained before it's bottled, which means it retains most of the beneficial nutrients and antioxidants that it naturally contains. Conversely, regular honey may undergo a variety of processing, which may remove beneficial nutrients like pollen and reduce its level of antioxidants
Untreated honey is best described as honey “as it exists in the beehive”
It is made by extracting honey from the honeycombs of the hive and pouring it over a mesh or nylon cloth to separate the honey from impurities like beeswax.
Once strained, Untreated honey is bottled and ready to be enjoyed.
Honey is one of the most faked foods in the world, and the US government isn't doing much to fix it
On the other hand, the production of regular honey involves several more steps before it is bottled — such as pasteurization and filtration .
Pasteurization is a process that destroys the yeast found in honey by applying high heat. This helps extend the shelf life and makes it smoother .
Also, filtration further removes impurities like debris and air bubbles so that the honey stays as a clear liquid for longer. This is aesthetically appealing to many consumers .
Some commercial honeys are additionally processed by undergoing ultra filtration. This process further refines it to make it more transparent and smooth, but it can also remove beneficial nutrients like pollen, enzymes and antioxidants .
Moreover, some manufacturers may add sugar or sweeteners to honey to reduce costs.
