📍LAST DAY! We are still here until 8:00PM at The Great Frederick Fair!!

It takes countless hours for our club members to plan, set up, run the booth, and tear down/store. We love being here, educating the public, getting folks interested in beekeeping, and sharing our local harvests with you!

🍯 We still have plenty of honey, honey sticks, and other honey-related products!

📝 Sign up for the next beginners beekeeping class.

😎Talk with other beekeepers!

🐝 Come see thousands of bees + the Queen in the observation hive!

Wonderful seeing kids involved in beekeeping! Congratulations Violet's Honey Bees!!!

Yay! Our Clover honey took 1st place in the amber honey class this year at the Great Frederick Fair. The past two years we were close, but only lost a couple of points over rookie presentation errors, none off for flavor or quality. We are delighted. Thank you judges! 👍🐝
