Already started one. Called bulk honey phila area or something.

I'm just waiting on a call back from my guy to give a ballpark price and tell me what kind of variety we are looking at.

I'd like to just go get a few 50gal barrels full with a ton of 5gal buckets and a spout lol. Ppl can just come here, fill up, and go!

It's not even much of a hassle... I may regret it in the long run, but hopefully we can get some good cheap honey to make up for the small amount of work.

I'll want the informatio about the honey before I commit to getting any buckets of it. My type of choice is wildflower. I find that I get a nice layering of flavors in the mead batches made with that type of honey.
