The Great New York State Fair Honey Show entry deadline is coming up soon! You are proud of your honey....here is a chance to "strut your stuff" to the rest of New York State and show off your bees' hard work at the Fair! It's fun and educational to enter a honey competition.
Please note the following: Entry tickets ($10 for one or multiple entries...a bargain!) must be purchased by July 28. You must have an entry ticket to submit your honey product for competition at the Fair. Note that you can only make one entry per exhibition class, however you can enter as many exhibition classes as you'd like.
THE RULES HAVE BEEN UPDATED. The Honey Show rules are "new and improved" and are more explicit about how to prepare your honey entry.
