Looking for a local source for home grown honey.

[GeauxLSU]

A noted biologist (of somewhat dubious character ) recently reminded me of something I believe I heard a while back, ....that locally grown honey, if consumed year round, can help releave allergy symptoms.
Does anyone have a source for some in the Gwinnett area?
TIA
Hunt/fish safely,

Check the following page out it has info to beekeepers from all over the state. I get mine from Wally Batchelor from Newnan. Have never been disappointed. His is some of the best honey around. I don't know if he can ship it but I'm sure you could work something out. If not I'm sure the others can fix you up as well. Hope this helps!

You'd have to ask HT2 , but I think there is a HOOTERS on JC BLVD.......Oh you mean ???....Never mind !!!!

Another place to check would be the extension service office. I'd almost guarantee the extension agent (not 4H or F$H) knows who has bees and honey. I also wouldn't be surprised if a Farm Bureau Agent could hook you up.

Could raise some...

and have it at your back door. My brother's neighbor does and said its pretty simple and hes' feeding them cherry flavored koolaid kinda experimenting to see if it will flavor up. Ever heard of that actually working?
