Somerset success at National Honey Show

The photo shows Mark receiving the Burnett cup from a representative of new show sponsor Kerax.

Mark and Christine Gullick (Burnham-on-Sea division) triumphed at the National Honey Show at the weekend when they were awarded a trophy and lots of prize cards.
They received the Burnett cup after being placed first with their two section squares (photo left) in the open class  and were placed in 15 of the 22 classes they entered.
Their success reflects their skills both as beekeepers and the care and hard work they  put in over the past season to produce so many very high quality exhibits.

1st for 2 section squares in the open class and the David Burnett cup.
1st for Natural crystallised honey in the open class
