Does anyone on this board produce any buckwheat honey? I was at a farmers market and a man came up to me saying buckwheat honey was going for $24 a pound. I was amazed at this claim. He is getting ready to transition to organic, wants to build soil structure and is going to plant a couple of hundred acres of it for a green manure crop. Let me know.
well if you can find someone to pay you $24 a pound you better jump on it. you could drive a tanker truck to onstead and fill it up and get rich. i know a guy that had to buy a couple hundred pounds this spring and paid $1.85 a pound for it. personally i hate the stuff.
I have barrels of the stuff, sold a bit under the light honey this year. I don't think you will find too many people willing to pay that much for BW honey, perhaps at farmer markets, you will get a bit more for the pure BW honey...
