Hello there,
we met over on Twitter and someone told me to give my mailing address so I can receive one of your wonderful sampler packs.
Here is my mailing address:

P.S. If I’m ever out in Colorado, would I be able to pay a visit and interview the beekeeper? Beekeeping and the fragile state of the bees is a huge interest of mine and something I would love to dedicate more time to writing about on my food blog, especially since my readers are also very interested in this topic.
Thank you again! I’ll be sure to let you know once I receive it.
All the best,

Yvonne,
Thanks for getting in touch.
Yes! If you are ever in Colorado (or in New Mexico), you are always welcome to visit Grampa's family beekeeping operation in Alamosa. Just let us know you're coming, and we'll arrange it!
I went to the City Park Farmer's market this morning. I stopped by and purchased some of your whipped white honey. I enjoy whipped honey but OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!!! That really is all I can say. I just had my first taste, had to drop what I was doing (making dinner) to write a quick note…Thanks! What a phenomenal product!!!
Kathryn – Wow! – thanks for the amazing review! Brent puts a lot of thought and hard work into making our whipped white honey and it makes us so happy to hear such positive feedback – thanks for taking the time to write us the note.
THANKS GRANT! The website looks great thus far. I'm off to tweet as it is Sunday, my rest day. Tommarow I will be extracting and then getting the bees ready for there migration to the desert.
Chamiso Honey- does this have nuts? I have allergies and this says “hazelnut” flavor.
Thank you!
Oh my gosh – I'm so sorry! I don't know how this comment got past me!
No – absolutely not – Chamiso Honey does not have anything in it other than honey. The flavor there refers to a tasting note – kind of like wine could have a "raspberry flavor" but it doesn't actually have any raspberries in it!
This one's for you: http://wp.me/pLmcw-1vW. Your tamarisk honey is over the top!
Thanks! That\’s a great article!
