Exhibit Notes:

• There are no age specifications for beekeeping exhibits.
• No bee hives may be brought to the state fair
• Honey water content will be measured.
• Fill level: the honey should be filled to the jar shoulder, not over, nor under.
• Chunk honey should go in a wide-mouth jar, preferably one specially made for chunk honey (see beekeeping catalogs).
• Be careful to distinguish “chunk honey” (comb in jar) from “cut comb” (comb only in box).
