>Draper's Super Bee Apiaries in Millerton PA  1 800 233-4273.  They have
Buckwheat as well as other specialty honeys...
 
   I can recommend Drapers as well.  They are good folks.
 
   Burkett Mills in Penn Yan, NY is one of the few places left that buy
buckwheat, so farmers in the Finger Lakes, western NY and North- Central PA co
ntract with them.  They are also a good place to buy seed, if you'd like to
sow a patch of buckwheat.  Plant in mid to late July in the northeast on the
poorest soil you have.  Do not use lime or fertilizer.  You'll get some nice
honey, and later on will feed wildlife.
 
   Stop and visit; it's an interesting place.  They also will ship seed UPS.
