    Anyone know of locally produced honey for sale? All I can see on Google is these guys https://www.facebook.com/irishlocalhoney but I don't think they are very "active".

    As well as selling the hives and equipment, I think this guy sells honey as well -- if not, he'll be able to advise you where to get it. Contact details on website. http://www.donegalbees.ie/

    Where about are you in Donegal?

    The butcher at the bottom of the main street in Letterkenny (Gildea's) was selling honey, think he said it was from Milford.
    Saw some in the Health Food shop in the Tesco shopping centre too but not sure when its from.

    Thanks for both suggestions. Will check them out. Think the Natural Way honey is from Sligo.

    Got honeycomb in Gildea's and the Sligo honey in the Natural Way. Still on the lookout for clear Donegal honey.

    If you are around Donegal Town this weekend there is the food festival. Was there last year and there was a group who did loads of honey from around Donegal. Might be worth checking out. I'll miss it this year.

    Local honey in Callaghans Maxol Station in Burt. And I will second the food festival in Donegal Town, one of the best events in the county for local produce.
