Depsite these drop in numbers Conwy Beekepers secretary, Peter McFadden said it was a positive day for the group and there was a storng number of attendees floating through at any given time.
Mr McFadden said: “It went really well. It was a good ending to the season and it was positive to see Conwy so busy.”
The beekeepers are already looking ahead to their next event now with their honey to be on display at the Conwy Foof Festival in October.
Past that the date, next year’s Honey fair has already been booked on the calendar with the popular event set to take place on September 13, 2018.
