whoo hoooo! i like it!.....only thing is i wouldn't want to push it around........... :D
-
It would be AWESOME, but how would you get it to and from where you sell?
-
I really like it....
But a sign at the road is all I use ;D

If you were not too far from your farmer's Market... horse drawn would would be awesome :)

Give it time Riverrat. Some of these guys on this forum are so handy, they could make that! Your just giving them ideas.

Exactly we are a creative bunch. Wouldn't expect less from a group of people whose hobby's include playing with singing insects. :o

singing insects.
?????
Mine only hum and buzz... :laugh:

At $650.00, that thing is priced right if it is well built. I have a small implement trailer for mowers and such that is either 10 or 12 feet in length. It would easily haul this. A small utility trailer might be the answer to moving it from place to place.

Good spotting River.
If that upper front panel were to be changed to glass and an observation hive set up inside, it would be absolutely unbeatable in attracting customers.

As i've stated before, my great grandfather sold honey from his horse drawn buckboard in mid town Ava, Mo. Back in those days rat, a wagon like that would have drawn a crowd. 8) Jack

I wonder if it would be suitable enough to actually pull down the street, say in a parade? Put two kids in bee suits to pull it and you would have a hit. A banner for advertising added, throw out individually wrapped honey candies to the kids and people would be talking about honey. ;D Just dreaming here!

We are all dreaming, because before the cart wheel made a complete turn the Health Department would would find something wrong nowaday. :o Jack

@Baker:
I'm sure the cart would not stand up to being pulled down the street, but it would really be cute with a medium sized pony pulling it.
But as someone stated, a road side sign is much less expensive.

Even before I started keeping bees, I bought honey from a farm store that sold local honey from a local beekeeper. Last year I decided to see how bad grocery store honey was, so I bought the smallest jars of three different brands. It was blended honey, and the label stated honey from Texas, US, Argentina and whatever. None of these honeys tasted remotely like the honey we harvest. Our honey is sold way too cheap. I'm giving my honey away, but to those of you that sell it raise the price. This has nothing to do with the cart. I just want all of you to make enough profit to purchase a cart and the utility trailer to pull it with.
Go taste some off-the-shelf honey and raise your prices. Keep some of the brand X honey there for customers to taste. go, go, go………….
