How Local is Local?

[CBEE]

So what finsky is saying is.. Where ever you are at ... there ya are.. you are local :-D

[Finsky]

you are local :-D

Jep, that is smart  - if I may classify this gang!

[Mici]

and Slovenia qualifies for half local honey :shock: :roll: :lol: 8-)

if conditions are the same, you shouldn't have problem mixing them, although, many beeks have said that within a honey stand they can find huge differences in honey (that is, from hive to hive, same location, same conditions) so...if you really wanted to label your honey right it should be:

location, hive#/name, date etc etc. :-D

Now that we have figured out what local means  :roll: Let me throw another word into the mix.

Ever heard of  "micro climate"?

In reference to a type of gardening refered to as xeriscaping. I am sure it could have a broader meaning but that is where I am familar with it. Xeriscaping is almost an indoctrination in Florida.

It was interesting because you could be in someplace like the San Francisco Bay area and twenty miutes later your on top of a mountain. That is why I think the elevation, terrain, and surrounding area plant life are such a factor.

In the State of Washington we have micro climates that are similar to every state in the union with 2 exceptions: 1. Florida and 2. Hawaii.  We have no semi-tropical or tropical swamps.  There are places along the Columbia River in eastern Washington that would make you think of the deserts of Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, or Utah.  In my area, due to the affect that Vancouver Island has on the trade winds, every Island has a different climate. Southwest Washington (Longbeach) reminds me of the eastern seaboard. except the oceans on the west instead of the east.  I could go on but won't.
