​JBKA Honey Show 2026
On Saturday 17th & Sunday 18th October we held our annual Honey Show at Hamptonne Country Museum.
We would like to extend a massive THANK YOU to the beekeepers, both old and new, and non-beekeepers that entered the show.
Without their time and effort preparing entries, for presentation we don’t have a show.
Claire O’Brien our BBKA judge, was treated on Saturday as she had the pleasure of sampling many delicious jars of Jersey Honey, cake/bread, jellies, mead and a class in cocktail making with mead and honey.
WELL DONE and Congratulations to all those that won a prize this year, we hope we can build on entry numbers for next year's show and others can also win a prize.
