We will be participating in our three, local festivals this year. Our goals are to educate the public about the value of honey bees to agriculture and their importance to our ecology, raise funds and recruit aspiring beekeepers. To achieve this, we will have booths providing information, displaying/selling bee products/CVBA merchandise, and have members available to speak with people and answer their questions.
There are 3 festivals:
Mountain Memories 2025, 48th Annual Hancock County Fall Festival. Newmans Ridge Rd. Fairground, Sneedville, TN 37869. Sat. Oct. 4th, 9am – 5pm. Sun. Oct. 5th 10am – 5pm.
2025, 46th Anniversary, Heritage Days Festival. Downtown, Rogersville, TN 37857. Sat. Oct. 11th, 9am – 6pm. Sun. Oct 12th, Noon – 4pm.
2025 Mountain Makins Festival. Rose Center, Morristown, TN 37814. Sat. Oct. 25th, 9am – 5pm. Sun. Oct 26th, 11am – 5pm.
