Healthy soil and sustainable growing

["John D'hondt" <dhondt@eircom.net>]

Same here Paul. Even locally produced "honey" may be less than that. The 
beekeepers I know take every last drop of "honey" out of their hives 
(continuously treated chemically against varroa) and then feed their bees up 
to 40 kilos of sugar water. If that hive survives the winter and many don't 
then that sugar water is harvested as honey again the next year.
