Title: Your honey bottling prefrence and what you sell it for
Post by: lfkeller on September 23, 2010, 05:52:03 pm

I live in central Georgia and am a first year beek.  We were blessed with surplus honey this year.  We are so proud of the 'ladies' and we are giving most of it away to neighbors, friends and family.  We had some half pint and pint jars already so that is what we are bottling in right now.  We will be near Dadant next week and I am thinking of stopping by and purchasing some plastic 'honey containers'.   I am curious to know what you bottle yours in and why and what it sells for.

Quart and pint mason type jars with one piece white lids and 1 pound and 8 ounce plastic jars with flip top lids.   Pints and pounds sell best.  $4, 6, 8 and 14 dollars.
