DiIorio's Market is your source for local honey. Like Hempstead Watermelons, Hempstead Honey is the sweetest around.

There are said to be health benefits from eating local honey, especially for those who suffer from allergies. The pollen in the honey is said to help to build an immunity to the allergens, and so reduce symptoms. Honey from a source near your home will contain a high proportion of the pollen that stimulates and causes the allergy, and therefore may be beneficial.

Local honey is also a quality food, and makes an ideal present, especially if you are travelling to see friends. You can take a taste of home with you!
