Anyone have a hookup for cheap bulk honey in the Dallas area? Me and some members of the Cane Island Alers plan on having a "mead-ing" in early January where we are all going to brew up a batch of mead. In the past the guys have had a supplier over in Baytown east of Houston where they were buying in bulk at a good price but apparently that supplier went out of business. We are looking for another supplier but I figured I would ask if you guys up north had any connections since the wife and kids and I will be in town the week after Christmas and I thought I could pick it up and bring it back to Houston if the price was good.
Thanks

Re: Hookup on bulk honey?
Honey supplies have dried up this year due to the heat and drought conditions. I've asked around and have only been able to get 24 pounds for next years batches.
If you come up with something please let us know.
I found this in my searches. Not local but a great price on tupelo:

I have not had a chance to call them yet to verify stock.

We found a guy in Kountze, Tx that will sell to us for 1.70 per lb if we bring out own containers. Still a bit of a drive but the best price that we have found so far.
