Asprince,
I am sending you a PM with someone that might have a barrel of honey. If he does not have it, I can probably find a noted beek who might help.

If Joe cannot help you, let me know. I know of another beek in Jacksonville that might have a couple of barrels.

I just called Joe. He bought barrels of honey from Griffis Brothers Honey  in Fargo GA. Their number is 912-637-5324. This honey is heat treated.
I also called another beek, Larry, who may also have a few barrels and I left a message for him to call back. I will let you know when he calls back.

Steve,
I just talked to Larry. His bees are hardly making any honey. Gallberry lasted less than 2 weeks and he did not make any off of Tupelo. We had a bad cold spell right in the middle of it.
I called another friend and he has 4 barrels from last year but he his holding tight to it to see what happens to the price of it.
Your best bet is the honey house in Fargo.

This local honey shortage will open the door for more imported honey.
