See a real queen bee and her colony up close under the glass of an observation hive.  Buzz over to the food court for scrumptious honey-made food and sample mead at the wine tasting tent.  Grab a honey brew at the beer garden and enjoy a treat from the Honey Bake-Off sale.  Live music on two stages, arts & crafts, and watch the kids have fun creating their own crafts at The Gilmore Group's Busy Beehive.
