 Thanks for the info , why would anyone from california but honey from the fascist state , we have plenty to go around and unlike the state you quoted we do not use some of the chemical they use , might be the reason lifespan is greater than either one of them ,buy local keep truck and plane in the garage .

In Florida they have county & state beekeeper clubs. They can call or look up the page for Lee county and connect with beekeepers there. That’s another way to find local honey.

I did this to find a beekeeper is Charleston South Carolina when my cousin had a cold. I found a beekeeper, called her, asked about her operation, paid for honey electronically and then gave my cousins husband the phone number and address and he went over and picked up the honey.

Some Lee county resources below:

https://sfyl.ifas.ufl.edu/lee/agriculture-and-natural-resources/

• State Level: Beekeepers can also join the Florida State Beekeepers Association, which represents local interests and provides resources.
• Mandatory Registration: Florida law requires all beekeepers to register their hives with the Florida Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services (FDACS). 

https://www.fdacs.gov/Agriculture-Industry/Bees-Apiary

To find local beekeepers in Lee County, Florida, utilize the Florida State Beekeepers Association website to locate regional clubs, or use services like Swarmed.org to connect with local, ethical removal experts. Shannon Farms also services the Southwest Florida region, including Cape Coral and Fort Myers. 

Online Platforms: Use websites like Swarmed.org to find local beekeepers who specialize in live hive removal and relocation instead of extermination
