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.
