Our Organic honey comes from approved supply bases all over the world. As we pack the honey in the UK the certifying body that we choose to use is The Soil Association. This is why the statement regarding their approved apiaries is present on our label. This statement applies to Organic honey from any country, hence all organic honey must meet the same strict standards. Any company that exports honey will be certified by an Organic body. (The body that they use does not necessarily have to be from the country the honey is from). We then have to supply the certifying body details to The Soil Association, who check the standards being used meet their requirements. If they do, we are authorised to use the honey with The Soil Association logo. We are audited by The Soil Association on a regular basis and checking that the certifying bodies are approved by them forms part of this audit. In addition to The Soil association standards we also test Organic honey on delivery to us in the same way that we test non-organic honey. This ensures that it is fully compliant to the UK Honey Regulations.
