Gayle: My apologies for the delayed response, things are a bit busy here.
Here is the contact information for the Minnesota Department of Agriculture. He is the guy that is in charge of hive inspections and such. He should know plenty of 'apiarists' (Beekeepers) in your state. Contact him for a list or one or two. Mr. Blane White, Supervisor Apiary Inspection Minnesota Department of Agriculture 90 West Plato Boulevard St. Paul, MN 55107 Phone: 651-296 0591 . E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Fax: number: 651-297 2504 The local, unfiltered, uncooked honey is for alergies (and great tasting nutrition too). The pollen is somewhat independent of that. If you cannot locate a source of pollen locally, you might try the Springtime website. They have pollen for horses, dogs and humans. http://www.springtimeinc.com As far as the pollen being from a different location, and concerns about a reaction to it, just begin with a small dosage. There should be no negative reaction. Pollen is a highly nutritious food, the mineral, vitamin and amino acid list would be longer than this E-Mail. You might find your girl is a bit friskey afterwards. Pollen should provide plenty of nutrition to 'prevent' most allergies, as well as give enough good health to deal with the heat problem. If you were to try a spoonful with some honey, you would notice the difference in about 15 - 20 minutes. I hope this helps. If not you can E-Mail me directly.
