Bank Holiday Monday was the annual Harrow-in-Leaf show. A one-day show this year, it includes the honey show of the Harrow Beekeepers Association.

Nascot Wood Bees entered quite a few classes and again was delighted to win an award in the “Taste” class (best tasting honey), honey (set or creamed), as well as in cookery (honey cake), candles (moulded), and wax (tablets) classes. The target for the show had been to win a cup for best mead, and this target was achieved, with a first in the sweet mead class. Congratulations to Doreen!
