There is little better than eating organic honey spread over homemade bread. The honey that I bought at the Flindt Family Farm was no exception. For only $2.50 a bottle, my whole suite was pleased with the delicious buy. The women who worked at the booth was the mother of the Flindt household and she told me that in order to teach her kids about money management, environmental care, responsibility and organic farming, she started up a small farm. They have 3 honeybee hives at the farm and also grow sunflowers, peppers, tomatoes, green beans and pumpkins. She told me the the Berea Farmers Market is the only place they sell or ever will. However, this does not seem to be a problem because of their increase in business since moving to the new location. Although they are not certified, they are relatively organic and learning more through trial and error.
Overall, I was incredibly pleased with the price and quality of their products! They were very friendly and talked to me about beekeeping, the difficulties and the benefits. I hope to continue going to the Farmer's Market.
