Abstract In heather honey from Lüneburger Heide relatively high values of cesium activity were found (up to about 650 Bq/kg). Activity values for heather honey,Calluna vulgaris plants and soil have been measured. It is to be assumed that the origin of this activity is the direct washout and fallout of Chernobyl activity in clouds to the plants. There may also be a high transfer of cesium from the soil to theCalluna vulgaris plant, but in order to determine the transfer factor, fresh plants are needed, which have grown later than in spring 1986.
