It's still cheaper at the farmers market. I'll buy 2 gallons though just to
try it out.

That's 60 lbs per bucket - 300 lbs of honey in all. That's almost 17
5-gallon batches of mead, at 18lbs of honey per 5-gallons. At $1.58 per
lb, the price is good - do we have 17 people who'd want to go in on it?
I
would imagine the homebrew shops would not be able to
go in on it due to
health dept regulations - but it might be worth a call over to Northern
Brewer or Midwest (or others?) to see if they can take advantage of it. I
just don't use it fast enough to keep a 5-gallon bucket of it around all
summer.

Ok so this is the gig. The lady will give us a 5 gallon bucket for $95 if
we buy five. The honey is a mix of clover, wildflower and something else.
Ill get back to ya'll on that.
