The Los Angeles County Fair has already started (Friday September 5) and continues until the 28th of this month. Our BASC members and the LACBA members are already working the booth in the agricultural section.This is our major event of the year. We do hope that our members can donate a few hours to help run the booth. Not only is this the major source of club funds for the year, this is also the major community interaction for public education on bees, pollenation, honey, and the need for beekeepers in our communities.
What we do at our booth: Sell honey stix (different flavors of honey packaged into plastic straws), 8 ounce bears and 1 pound jars of wildflower or orange blossom honey, display our large 4 frame observation hive and explain about our honey bees (behavior, biology, pests, honey, pollen, royal jelly, etc).
Tickets and parking passes are provided to any member who wishes to help out. Give Mark Allen a call at 562-505-2768 to arrange tickets and parking.
