Open Class Honey Judging

Beekeeping is a popular hobby in the Dodge and Jefferson-county area for the fellowship and education it provides. The honey open-class division presents beekeepers with the opportunity to exhibit the fruits of their trade in competition. There are 10 different categories, ranging from honey comb to extracted honey to bees wax, and everything in between. Judging will be held Wednesday of the fair under the Grandstand at 9 a.m. In addition to awards of first, second, third, and fourth place in each category, a rosette is presented to the best of show. Exhibitors and fair goers are invited to sit and watch the judging process.
