Havre — Hill County's Hi-Line capital on the Milk River, where the Bear Paw Mountains rise dramatically from the northern Montana plains, where the Rocky Boy's Indian Reservation, the Sweetgrass Hills, and the Missouri Breaks country to the south create one of Montana's most productive honey territories built on sweet clover from the Milk River valley bottomlands and irrigated farmlands, alfalfa from Hill County's agricultural heart, native prairie wildflower from the vast unbroken grasslands of the Hi-Line, sunflower from the dryland grain farms stretching to the Canadian border, and the unique rabbitbrush and sagebrush blossom of the Bear Paw Mountain foothills — in a community renowned for its position as the commercial center of Montana's Hi-Line, its Fort Assiniboine historic site, its role in the Great Northern Railway history that opened the northern plains, and its status as the gateway to the Fort Belknap and Rocky Boy's Indian Reservations — is home to a multigenerational beekeeping community that has mastered the art of high-latitude honey production in Montana's most northerly agricultural region, where the short intense summers produce honey of exceptional sweetness and distinctive flavor. This August festival at Havre Community Fairgrounds celebrates the Hi-Line's remarkable honey heritage through producers from across Hill, Blaine, Phillips, and Valley counties, competitive honey shows featuring regional sweet clover, alfalfa, native prairie wildflower, and sunflower varietal honeys, guided tastings exploring the unique flavor profiles created by Montana's northern latitude high-altitude light and temperature, and educational programs connecting Hi-Line honey heritage with the broader agricultural history of the Milk River valley and the northern Great Plains.
