>I produce about 250 lbs. of honey.   I am located in Maine, USA.

If you are in a populated part of Maine, I suggest you look in natural food
stores and upmarket supermarkets to see pricing for specialty honey.  Some
natural food stores are happy to add another line of honey to the shelf and
will have customers who seek out "local" and "unheated" or "raw" honey.  I
sell quite a bit of honey through farm stands but that season is about over.
 Honey does make great gifts, so you might try Christmas tree vendors.

My customers have shown a strong preference for glass over plastic containers.
