Tampa Gold Honey is a wilderness Honey.

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 Local Tampa Honey at its Finest.

 

Tampa Gold Wilderness Local Honey is renown for its unique flavor and superb quality. 

 

This owes much to the placement of our beehives in the Tampa Wilderness areas. 

 

We do this for extended periods, allowing our bees to collect nectar from the blossoms of a diverse range of native plants in one of the most natural, undisturbed wilderness settings . 

 

Undeterred, our commitment to excellence led us to explore the varied floral tapestry of wilderness Honey. 

 

 

Why  we stopped putting our Bees in Orange Groves

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.

                                                                                                                                     
                        Our Wilderness  Raw Local Tampa Honey is Real  honey.
 It is more popular choice than Processed  honeys. 

  WE ONLY SELL Real Tampa Local HONEY
  WE NEVER FEED OUR BEES SUGAR WATER , HONEY IS LEFT IN THE HIVE FOR THEM TO SURVIVE.

FEEDING SUGAR WATER IS NOT A REAL SOURCE, LIKE THE NECTAR THEY BRING IN FROM FLOWERS

NOTHING IS ADDED TO THE HONEY
      
  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.

WHY WE DO NOT SELL TUPLO HONEY

        Rarity and Demand:
        The limited growing area of the tupelo tree contributes to the rarity and high demand for tupelo honey.
         
        Due to its high value and limited availability, there's a risk that some producers might mislabel or adulterate other types of honey to sell it as tupelo honey
         
           Check for certifications or labeling that clearly indicates the honey is 100% tupelo, and be wary of overly low prices or excessive availability.
         IN THE LAST 5 YEARS NO TUPLO SUPPLIER HAS PRODUCED A LAB REPORT OF TUPELO THAT TEST MORE THAN 48 % TUPELO  HONEY

Why we do not sell Bee Pollen and Royal Jelly .

Trapping pollen has the potential to inflict significant nutritional stress on the colony.  Collecting it may adversely affect the health of the bees and even destroy the colony. 

The truth about Royal Jelly,  well-managed hive during a season of 5–6 months can produce approximately 500 g (18 oz) of royal jelly, also

Collecting it may adversely affect the health of the bees and even destroy the colony.

 

The manuka honey scandal.

 Manuka honey is often touted as a “superfood,  fact is that is no better than any other REAL HONEY.

 But with more being sold than is actually produced, is there some dodgy dealing going on?

 

Science or Snake Oil: is manuka honey really a ‘superfood’ for treating colds, allergies and infections? Claims are nonsense.

 According to recent studies and reports, a significant portion of Manuka honey on the market is considered fake, with investigations revealing that nearly half of tested samples may be adulterated with sugars, particularly when not sourced from New Zealand and lacking proper certification, indicating a high rate of fraudulent Manuka honey products.

 REAL Honey HAS BEEN FOUND TO BE NO DIFFERENT FROM MANUKA HONEY

 REAL HONEY used as an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antibacterial agent. People commonly use honey orally to treat coughs and topically to treat burns and promote wound healing.

 

 While honey sticks can be a convenient way to consume honey, some argue they are not "good" because they often contain a larger portion of sugar than traditional honey, can be less environmentally friendly due to the packaging, and might not always guarantee high-quality honey depending on the brand, potentially leading to concerns about purity and taste.

Packaging waste:

The individual packaging of honey sticks can contribute to more plastic waste compared to buying honey in a larger container. 

 

Quality concerns:

Some brands might use lower quality honey in their honey sticks, which could impact taste and nutritional value.
