It is time to start planning for the 2024 Carlton County Fair NEMNBA Bee Hut:
In 2023:
More than 30,000 people visited the Carlton County Fair!
We sold out of 3000 honey sticks by Saturday afternoon!!
One way that we support our association’s mission of education and outreach is with our Carlton County Fair Bee Hut and Pollinator Gardens. This is also a big fundraiser for NEMNBA. 15% of honey sales go to our association.
Volunteer opportunities include being a Bee Hut Greeter, helping with Honey Sales, and squeezing for Honey Tasting.
Reserve time on your summer calendars for the 2024 Carlton County Fair and to help at the NEMNBA Bee Hut! Thursday, Aug. 15th – Sunday Aug. 18th. Please Click Here to volunteer!
