\nBlack Jar Honey Contest Rules &\; Information:

\n-Taste is the only thing that matters in this competition
\n-The honey must have been produced locally (within 50 miles of Gallatin\, TN) by the entrant&mdash\;either individually or as part of a family\, business\, or another group project that the entrant represents.
\n-Only 1 entry is allowed per individual\, family\, business\, or other group project.
\n-A 12 to 16 oz bottle of honey must be submitted in a squeezable container with a flip-top lid. The flip-top lid is a FIRM REQUIREMENT because the honey will be squeezed out onto the Judges&rsquo\; tasting spoon without opening the lid. Classic containers are preferred\, but honey bears are also acceptable. Larger or oddly-shaped containers will not be accepted.
\n-No identifying markings should be on the container for judging.
\n-Honey entries will be accepted on Friday\, June 24th from 5:00 to 7:00 pm and Saturday\, June 25th from 8:00 to 10:00 am at the Registration table at the Gallatin Farmers Market\, 160 W Franklin Street\, Gallatin\, TN 37066. Containers will be assigned random identification numbers.
