I live in the Mpls MN area. My and other raw local honey goes for 

$4-6  for 8oz container
$8-$10 for 16 oz container

The key to a good price is staying away from plastic and the ubiquitous honey bear. Plastic and 
honey bears says "cheap" and then you are marketing on price against foreign honey. 

I produce 30,000 pounds a season and make my living from my bees.
