Message: In order to legally sell honey in the State of CA, a beekeeper is required to have at least a Cottage A or Cottage B food license and Good Manufacturing Practices must be followed. https://ift.tt/2ENBEBT That being said, many removers will offer the honey to residents. In some rare cases, such as open air hives on confirmed unsprayed comb, a beekeeper may consider such. However, I am not one to risk my license as many times residents say they did not spray and they really did. In addition, it is illegal to sell removal honey in many states. The Texas law reads that honey must be from a beekeeper's managed and owned hives. There are good reasons why. Many times removal involves deconstruction and there may be plywood splinters, sheetrock dust, stucco dust, insulation, rat feces, and more present. Those are definitely violations of GMP. https://ift.tt/2JOGRx7 I have recently heard of bee removers selling removal honey after processing it in the back of their van. Those are exactly the reasons there are laws in place to protect consumers. I recommend that any consumer do their homework when they are buying products and I personally am not one to offer honey after a removal. The loophole in the law in Texas is offering it at no cost, but I get grossed out by the thought. Technically, CA has no laws against giving away removal honey.
