Our honeybees gather this pollen in the high Sonoran Desert around Wickenburg, Arizona. This location provides us with the highest quality pollen that is gathered by bees living in a pristine, desert environment far removed from high density populated areas. The pollen has been cleaned with a curtain of air and inspected for any foreign material. Our production is limited to around 200 pounds per year. Please read our blog post to learn more. http://mcclendonsselectblog.com/2013/04/30/a-little-about-bee-pollen/
