The 2019 LA County Fair Bee Booth

The 2019 LA County Fair Bee Booth was a grand adventure with thousands of fair goers stopping by to learn about honey bees.

We’d like to say a big THANK YOU to all the volunteer members of the Los Angeles County Beekeepers Association and the Beekeepers Association of Southern California who worked countless hours to bring their adventures in beekeeping, knowledge of honey bees, and joy for this amazing creature to so many.

Fair goers love the Bee Booth at the LA County Fair.

Fair goers enjoy listening to Nicole Medina, the 2019 American Honey Princess, share her experience and knowledge about honey bees at the LA County Fair Bee Booth.

These are some of the many volunteer members of the Los Angeles County Beekeepers Association and the Beekeepers Association of Southern California who donated their time and expertise at the 2019 LA County Fair Bee Booth.

LA County Fair Bee Booth 2019 - Catch the Buzz About Bees!

Catch the Buzz About Bees at the Bee Booth at the LA County Fair. Honey bees are one of the most fascinating creatures on the planet. Step inside the bee booth and you'll hear the 'buzz of the bees'. Peer inside our live observation hive for an exciting look at what goes on inside a beehive. Our experienced beekeepers will explain how bees communicate through sent and the 'waggle dance,' how they travel for miles to gather nectar to make honey, learn about the different jobs worker bees do, the duties of the drones, and how a bee becomes a queen. See if YOU CAN FIND THE QUEEN!

The exquisite macro-photography of Kodua Galieti shows the amazing intricacies of bees.

Come, meet the bees!

Message from Cynthia Alvarado
Bee Booth Chair Person

Hello Fellow Members/Beekeepers:
We have 2 weekends left in the 2019 Fair Season.  I want to thank all the members that have come to support and continue to participate in the event.  The public greatly appreciate the information that you provide to educate them about bees and beekeeping.

Your volunteer participation is greatly needed at:

The Observation Hive
To Educate Others

This is a great opportunity for new beekeepers (especially those who attended our LACBA Beekeeping Class 101) to share the information you acquired about bees and beekeeping with the general public. Come out and meet your fellow beekeepers and you’ll learn more than you ever dreamed possible by sharing your knowledge with others.

The Honey Table

Proceeds from honey sales go to benefit the bees through honey bee education and research.

There are still 8 days left of the fair and many spots need to be filled.  Check your email - Your E-vite came through Sign-up.com (Copy Los Angeles fair). Review the Schedule for the dates that do not say Full, and please Sign-up. If you did not receive your E-vite, check your spam. If you don’t have the E-vite, call me (323) 243-0756 and I will be happy to resend or help you schedule a day and shift time.

Come, be a part of helping the honey bees.

Thank you,
Cindy
