There has been much talk among the homeopathic community regarding honey and seasonal allergies. Reading about it further, it makes sense to me.
The idea is to take small amounts of local (local being the key. Local = local bees, local pollen) honey daily to build up an immunity to the pollen which causes many allergies. Recently, physicians have also agreed with the idea, suggesting it as an alternative and in conjunction with medication.
Luckily, I don't suffer the malady, but my boyfriend does, horribly. He has tried all the prescribed medications and nothing works. My question is, how does one go about finding local honey without cruising the streets? I imagine a farmer's market is the way to go..but where are they listed?
By the way, he lives in Aston, Pennsylvania, about 20 miles from the Delaware border.
Thanks for any help.
