Just the other day I was searching for more local food sources on Local Harvest and ran across a new entry: Southwest Bee Supply. Now I've known about it for years having passed by it on 6th Ave many, many times. I've just assumed that it had items for the apiarist, but they have more. They sell honey, which makes sense, and they sell pastured eggs. Now we haven't stopped in, yet, but once we need some more honey, this'll be the place.
As an aside, if you are looking for good eggs, by which I mean eggs that taste good, and where the hens actually get to go out side and eat grass and bugs, look for the words "pastured eggs" on the carton. As it turns out, "cage free," "free-range," and terms like that don't really mean what they say (see this article for example: http://www.wisegeek.com/what-are-pastured-eggs.htm).
