I think anytime you ingest a locally grown pollen, it helps. I have been growing all of my own herbs and doing pick your own and farmer’s market shopping for the past year. I have bought one box of claritin this allergy season (I should be on my third or fourth box) and my sinuses are not nearly as bad as they have been in the past. (Yes, I use locally grown honey too!)
Where does one find locally grown honey? I am in the Santa Barbara area and would not have a clue to know who to even ask. Maybe the local Trader Joes?
