 State Fair Story“My husband and I had lived in Nebraska, Ohio, and Kansas prior to moving to Minnesota in 2000. None of those state fairs can compare to Minnesota's. I began entering bee and honey products in 2001, and have done so each year since. Taking an active part in the State Fair has truly made me feel at home in Minnesota, and proud to be part of such an inclusive, important event in the state's yearly calendar.” - Allison Kohtz |
