My beekeeping journey started by joining the Northside Beekeepers Association at Lawnton to learn all I could about my hobby before putting bees in a FlowHive in my suburban backyard in 2016. The ancient art of mentoring was the gold in the raw honey and I rapidly made many friends who never tired of talking, discussing, and sharing ideas about bees.
With my passion about bees and their impact on the environment, it didn’t take long for me to start thinking about getting away from 9 – 5 and doing something to connect with nature.
Now there are beehives in our paddock, our friends and family’s suburban backyards and paddocks. All these bee hosts care deeply for their gardens and the little friends in them. So you know your honey is coming from happy bees that are well looked after. Many of our hosts now postpone mowing their lawn until the dandelions have finished flowering.
We have a strong ethical compass towards trying to make every dollar spent to go back into local businesses. We believe supporting a local beekeeper where you know your honey is coming from the bees that are probably sitting on your garden flowers, supports the continuation of small local family run businesses over big corporations and supports the environment on a micro scale. AND IT TASTES BETTER.
We want to inspire others to use natural and shop local. We want to start conversations around beekeeping and natural top quality farmed food. We really do have the best job in the world and the best lifestyle for our family.
Dream big for local impact.
We produce some of Australia’s most pure and delicious honey. Our honey is created with love by the happiest and healthiest bees across South East Queensland.

We are passionate about biodiversity and on a mission to ensure the honey you love today is sustainable well into the future.
