Slovenian cultural heritage is strongly intertwined with beekeeping. Thus, the bee has become a symbol of hard work, and sweet honey is liquid gold, which we use to prepare a variety of products, tasty treats, and in colder days it can also help us strengthen the immune system. The traditional 9th Europark Honey Festival will be dedicated to beekeepers and honey in the largest shopping center in northeastern Slovenia.
This will be held on the occasion of the Slovenian Food Day, which will take place this year November 15, and in support of the project Traditional Slovenian breakfast. Visitors can meet Slovenian beekeepers and their products in Europark Maribor on Friday and Saturday, November 15 and 16.
Honeymoon weekend in Europark
Beekeepers who produce Slovenian honey with a protected geographical indication, the Maribor Beekeeping Association, the Beekeeping Development Association and the Beekeeping Association of Slovenia will once again present themselves at the traditional Europark honey festival. Visitors will be able to meet the diversity and richness of Slovenian honey and other treasures of the bee hive, such as royal jelly, propolis, pollen and beeswax. Several types of excellent domestic honey will be presented at the festival, and gingerbread, chocolate with honey and various honey drinks will not be missing for all those with a sweet tooth and gourmets. Beekeeping tools will also be exhibited, and for the youngest there will be special events on Friday from 4 to 6 p.m. and on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. beekeeping workshops, at which the honey queen will also join them.
