Suppliers

I'm not sure if this already is on here but I was wondering if I could get a few sources from where I could buy bulk honey online? This would be greatly appreciated and very helpful.

Depending on where you live, also check out local apiaries. At least you'd know the source, and save on shipping while supporting local beekeepers.

Always contact them before showing up. Sometimes the pricing tells you they really don't want to sell you a bucket full, as they can get way more from filling and selling small and pretty jars at markets. After doing some research you know when the price is right.

I live in Florida and while I like orange blossom honey I want to spread out and discover different honeys to make mead from. Two that I have been interested in recently are goldenrod and fireweed honey. So if you know of a source where I could buy some that would be great and even better if anyone knows of any sellers near Florida. I don't mind a drive.

In addition to the honey locator, here are a few major honey suppliers that sell via internet:

Also, check your local farmers' market(s) for local honey.

Also I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed this but it seems that a lot of honey distributors on honey locator are no longer in service.

All the Star Thistle sold by them is from my dad's bees. Pretty decent prices.
