Two places in this part of Pennsylvania put honey in front of shoppers, and they are different kinds of stop. Dutch Gold Honey is a honey business at 2220 Dutch Gold Drive in Lancaster, and its website invites shoppers to buy varieties of honey and maple syrup online. Green Dragon Farmers Market & Auction is a Friday market at 955 North State Street in Ephrata, its own town, and its site lists honey among its products and states market hours. Neither page says its honey is raw, and neither page gives a Lancaster harvest calendar, so both points are unverified.
Dutch Gold Honey's site names Buckwheat Blend, Organic and Orange Blossom in its product listings. Those are product names on a honey seller's page, and the page does not tie any of them to hives in Lancaster County, so a local floral source for each is unverified. Green Dragon's page lists honey and honey products without naming a single variety or flower, so the honey sold there is unverified by type.
Dutch Gold Honey, 2220 Dutch Gold Drive, Lancaster. Its website gives that address with the Lancaster, PA 17601 postal code and a phone number, and invites shoppers to buy many varieties of honey and maple syrup online. Green Dragon Farmers Market & Auction, 955 North State Street, Ephrata, is a separate town, so plan the drive on its own terms rather than as a Lancaster stop. The market's site lists honey and honey products among what it offers and states that market hours are every Friday from 8AM to 8PM, operating year-round.
Green Dragon states that it operates year-round and is open every Friday from 8AM to 8PM, which is a market schedule rather than a honey harvest window. Dutch Gold Honey's page gives no selling window with month names. Because neither page prints a harvest month, a local harvest calendar for Lancaster honey is unverified.
Checked on 2026-11-10 against the Dutch Gold Honey homepage, which showed the Lancaster street address, the phone number and the honey and maple syrup listing with Buckwheat Blend, Organic and Orange Blossom product names, and against the Green Dragon Farmers Market & Auction site, which showed the Ephrata address, the Friday 8AM to 8PM year-round hours and a honey products listing. These pages establish address, hours and product listings only; they do not establish where the honey was harvested or that it is raw.
Before driving, call Dutch Gold Honey to ask whether the variety you want is in stock, whether the Lancaster address takes walk-in shoppers or is set up for online orders, and whether the honey you want is raw. For Green Dragon, confirm with the market that a honey seller will be set up on the Friday you plan to visit, since the site lists honey products but not which stands carry them. Ask about payment methods, including cash, at both, and call ahead rather than assuming a stand will be open.
We checked each of these against the business’s own website or the market’s official vendor list: operating, selling honey, and in Lancaster.
