Each year the Iowa State Fair
is bringing in over a million visitors. Many of those
visitors make their way to the IHPA Honey Booth. This
is always a big opportunity to educate the public about
the necessity of bees and all the wonderful products they
make.
This year the submissions for
the honey products display was great. It gives beekeepers
a chance to show off their product and the diversity of
products that bees make. A full display stand like this
is what makes the IHPA booth such an outstanding exhibit.
The
Iowa State Fair is the major event for the IHPA. Funds raised
from sales at the Honey booth are used to support the IHPA
projects throughout the year. And it takes a lot of work
from a lot of people to keep everything running smoothly.
The IHPA would like to thank everyone who helped by putting
in their time and effort. Also thanks to all who submitted
entries for judging, the great response makes for a very
nice display of what bees and beekeeping have to offer.
There really isn’t anything like the Iowa State Fair,
and this year was a great one because of all the hard work
from everyone.

Brahms and Bev Powell are ready at the IHPA Honey booth.
Along with selling honey products they answer the many
questions people have about bees and honey.
The Iowa State Fair is a great
experience. And being held in the middle of August can
be a pretty hot one as well. The honey lemonade stand
is an ever popular stop. Lemonade on a hot summer day
can really hit the spot, and what could be better than
adding some honey?
