I eat so much honey. I feel that if I stop eating as much as I do I would probably lose about 15lbs. Lol.

Forget it. I'll just stay chunky. Hahaha

We buy fresh raw honey from a bee keeper not far from here he charges 12$ for a quart jar full. I think thas a good price for fresh local honey. We sometimes trade him too. He will take fish or other canned goodies in trade.

It's the best!! And if you have alleges, local hunny will help a ton!!

If you have a farmers market it'll definitely be there

The Garden Show at the coliseum this weekend should have some too. Baby's Local Honey will be there, I think they have a store by the courthouse too.

guy put a hive on my property last year..........he give me free honey...........but this year it will be from my own place.

Kind of neat, the grandbaby thinks the bees are cool!

I went home last night. Grilled some pork chops with green beans and cathead biscuits with honey. Take my word for it---- It was delicious.. No pics because dinner was gone before it hit the plate.

You can get it at that Charleston Farmers Market on Bilbo St. every Saturday morning. It seems like I've seen local honey at some of the feed stores too.

^^^^This... Don't buy a huge jar unless you plan on using ALOT of it. I put some in a smoothie 3-4 times a week and the big jars still crystalize.
