Attendees got to enjoy free honey samples.
The event also had more than 70 vendors set up selling handmade jewelry, birdhouses, antique glassware and more.
The festival had a large turnout of local bee keepers.
"Because we're local, we're able to supply people with a local product, and the turn outs been really good, so we love it," said Matthew Cary, who is the owner of Matt's Bees.
Cary even brought along some bees for demonstrations to educate kids about honeybees.
