What makes honey organic?
If the foraging range of the honeybees is "spontaneous vegetation" (so no agricultural crops) then the bees will be collecting organic nectar. This is generally agreed to be approx 3KM/1.8miles. Also, the pest and diseases present in the beehives must be controlled with compounds that are accepted as organic, not by synthetic chemicals. The beehive can not be fed sugar as a substitute for a honey diet. The honey must not be heated at all during processing.
