Caledon Honey Trip

My mom likes going to Caledon to get honey from time to time, basically it's once a year.  She says those honey in Caledon is the best in town and she usually gets a lot - 2 to 3 dozens!!  Her friends ask her to buy it for them monstly, 'coz the trip to Caledon from where I live is pretty far, it takes an hour to get there driving locally.  Yet, driving locally allows you to see the views where you don't get used to see all the time.  =)

 On our way going to Caledon, instead of using the highway, Mom drove locally.

 She said we can see more things going locally.


 Driven for over an hour, this is what we are here for.

 Mom only buys from this vendor here, no one else.

 Dried corn, adding some color to the Fall.

Pumpkin & mums, color of fall~




On my way going to Missisauga, we passed by these empty fields.

  1. 我都係長期食honey, 相中見到蜜糖應該係處理過(pasteurised), 未知呢個農場有冇 raw honey 賣?

    1. 這個我也不太清楚,只知這賣蜜糖的檔口位於 Forks of the Credit,有時擺檔在路邊,有時擺檔於 Belfountain 的'市集'中。母親大人每年去這個地方一次專幫襯他買蜜糖,一買就買兩打!

  2. Dan哥,要買生蜂蜜除非是郊遊順道,否則唔使下下去咁遠,我試過Royal Bee Farm of Canada 啲生蜂蜜同埋花粉都唔錯,華人蜂場以前只做批發,現在拓展門市零售,Pacific Mall、Market Village and First Markham 都有門市。

    相中見到蜜糖明明寫住 unpasteurised 何以認為是"係處理過(pasteurised)"呢?

    1. 我睇唔到相中文字, 可能我老花開始嚴重, 我只是睇到"VISIBILITY RESTRICTED 7km".

    2. MJ 多謝資料提供, 真係冇留意唐人商場有蜂蜜賣, 可能係對唐人貨品有抗拒感, 視而不見.

      我通常到洋人嘅健康食品店鋪買, 每次買一桶; 大約25磅, 足夠兩年用.

    3. 中國養蜂歷史始自秦漢不比洋人短,華人在加國養蜂有管制,相信不會像在祖國般做假,不過也難怪你不放心,Royal Bee Farm 可以在自己網站將其中一個蜂場多次由Vaughan寫成Vanghan =D

    4. 蜂蜜放得耐會出現結晶化,可能對品質或營養價值無乜直接影響,但一次過買兩年的存貨,始終有啲唔夠新鮮的感覺。

    5. 我都有考慮過呢個唔新鮮嘅問題, 摷過吓資料, 應該冇問題.

  3. Dan哥,唔使驚老花眼睇唔清楚,睇下Pure Caledon Hills Bee Farm 網頁,蜜糖樽上label一清二楚!

    3. 剛剛 post 了一張蜜糖樽的 label 照上網。雖然 label 有點殘舊,但所需的 info 清晰可見。 =)
