We haven't had good distinct summer flows and fall flows here in my part of NY, so I have been taking the honey off of the hives all at one time in Sept. and Oct., then extracting it. So, the goldenrod is in there w/ all of the other floral sources that the bees worked on from apple blossom/dandelion to goldenrods/asters. I passed out hundreds of tastes of honey to people yesterday, at a Craft Show, and didn't have a one that didn't like it.
Found a person who is allergic to honey though. Most unusual.
