Hi Everyone. Long-time brewer, first time poster to this forum. Anyway, I've been home brewing beer for the last 25 years. My current setup consists of a conical fermentor, with a two-tap corney keg system. In addition to home brewing, in the last several years I've gotten into keeping honey bees.

I currently have two hives, and an excess of honey. This honey is straight from my bee hives, unprocessed. I currently have about 15 lbs of Linden honey and 25 lbs of summer wildflower honey. I am going to harvest again in September (Goldenrod Honey) and will again be looking to get rid of about 20 pounds.

I do not use any chemicals on my beehives. My bees are miles from the nearest farm fields and the pesticides they use.

If anyone is interested, give me a PM and maybe we can work something out.
