I'm thinking of keeping bees and wondered what it is that people use honey for and if people even think of buying honey?
Here is a little poll... if you could spare 2 seconds to pop a choice in about honey, that would be ace.
Many thanks

Honey is supposed to benefit hayfever sufferers in the locality of the bee hives.'You can't change the past, you can only change the future' Gary Boulet.

Bees are quite expensive in their set up, and it can take some years before you make a profit out of supplying locals with honey
However honey direct from the hive is wonderful!
We use honey a lot, for cooking, on toast, with lemon or vinegar for a drink, even the dogs get honey!Free/impartial debt advice: Consumer Credit Counselling Service (CCCS) | National Debtline | Find your local CAB0 -
