Prices for honey vary a little every year, there ends up being kind of a standard.

It also depends on the quantity. Smaller jars sell for a higher price per volume.
I get $6 for a 12oz bear and $7 for a 1lb bottle and $14 for a 2lb jar. I do sell some quarts and half gallons but not as many due to the volume I have. The best money would probably be on small 2-4oz bottles but I don't go to farmers markets or anything to sell.

If anyone wants some, I do ship but you have to pay for that(sorry).
