Local Farmer Says He Has Help for Your Seasonal Allergies

The Rockford area enjoyed a milder winter this year which was awesome, but local doctors say that is bad news for allergy sufferers. Thank goodness one local farmer has an alternative allergy treatment available that doesn't require a lot of pill popping. 

I have often heard about the benefits of using raw, locally harvested honey to alleviate allergy symptoms, but have never quite known which honeys qualify as local to try it for myself. Now I have my answer, and I can't wait to try it.

I don't know about you, but I would rather eat some delicious honey than pop a whole bunch of pills several times a day, or continuously use a neti pot which always freak me out!
