Honey Show 2019
As Paul pointed out at his lecture, this is something everyone should participate in. In fact, it's not unusual for some classes to have no entries, so the reality is that you all stand a very good chance - you can even enter the novice classes if you're not confident, or enter the taste class where your honey doesn't have to look perfect. If you're looking for jars, you can pick them up at Irish Bee Supplies, located between Collon and Ardee.
The judge will explain why he makes his decisions: this is a fascinating experience and you'll learn a lot, so this is definitely not to be missed.
