Honey Market · September 27–28, 2030 · Odessa, Delaware
Historic Odessa — one of Delaware's best-preserved colonial villages on the Christina River corridor — provides a stunning 18th-century backdrop for this autumn honey market celebrating the Chesapeake watershed's beekeeping heritage. New Castle County's piedmont landscape of tulip poplar woodlands, black locust groves, goldenrod meadows, and tidal wetland fringes supports excellent honey production from Hockessin to the Red Clay Creek valley. The market takes place among Odessa's National Historic Landmark district buildings, featuring Delaware and southeastern Pennsylvania beekeepers, honey and mead tastings, colonial-era beeswax craft demonstrations, and living history programs connecting colonial beekeeping traditions to modern sustainable apiculture.
