Wonder if anyone has local bee pollen to sell and if it is possible to say such a thing is organically grown? Please e-mail if you can help

Oddly all those who used to advertise local pollen for sale on the OSBA web site are no longer advertising. Hopefully someone will read your post and reply, but this Portland board historically has few people checking in. You may have better luck posting your question on the general message board.
As for pollen being organic, it may very well be organic, but the rules for getting anything in beekeeping to be certified organic is nearly impossible. It would be best for you to find a geographical location in which you believe come closest to your idea of organic and sustainable. Remember no chemical fertilizers or pesticides within 2 miles Miracle grow and Roundup included. Find a hive there and see if a beekeeper is collecting pollen. Good luck!
