Honeys Made Across the United States

Jump to regional honeys

Some American honeys cannot be pinned to one state. Sourwood is made along the southern Appalachians from Georgia to West Virginia, by beekeepers in half a dozen states, from a tree that grows in many more. Each such honey is documented once here, and shown on the hub of every region that produces it as those hubs are built.
