I agree with Grant, i have 60 hives, thirty five produced honey this year, the rest are nuc's, splits and new hives i've started this summer. I am going to have to expaned my operation to keep up with the demaned of local honey. The thirty five hives produce 25 five gal. buckets of honey, i've sold 15 of them and have turned down some big orders so i'll have enough honey to sell at the Fair Grove Festival the last weekend of this month ( i've already paid $75.00 for a booth) or i would have been sold out by now:thumbsup:.Like grant, this has been one of my better years for honey sales.

PS I don't sell by the 5 gal bucket, i bottle and package (comb honey) my honey and sell from home and the Farmers Market.
