    Marshfield Fair August 15 - 24, 2024

    Every year, the PCBA participates in the Marshfield Fair, which runs for 10 days each August.  It is the greatest outreach opportunity of the PCBA for the year. 

    Club members can compete for prizes in a variety of categories, sell honey and other bee-related products, participate in demonstrations, and help educate the general public about the nature of the honey bee.

    For success at the Marshfield Fair, we rely on our members as volunteers to staff the honey sales, candle rolling, and screen house attractions at the on site Bee Barn.

    Visit https://marshfieldfair.org/fair/exhibitor-information/ for a complete listing of all contests and the exhibitor handbook.
