Boal honey

Food and drink · Boal, Eo-Navia, Asturias

Boal has celebrated the Honey Fair since 1986, generally on the last weekend of October, dedicated to this product and to other artisanal and agri-food producers of the concejo, which produces close to twenty tonnes a year of heather and chestnut honey through its beekeeping cooperative. The program includes the sale of honey and local products at the municipal sports centre, talks on beekeeping at the House of Culture, poster and model-making competitions for schoolchildren, and competitions for dishes made with honey, as well as a skittles tournament and displays of traditional Asturian sports. Anyone wishing to learn about the trade up close can visit the House of Beekeeping, in the village of Los Mazos, by arranging an appointment with the town hall.
