Happy World Bee Day

World Bee Day 2026, celebrates all things bees, and here are some fun facts we love to share:
1️⃣ Close to 75% of the world's major food crops benefit, to some extent, from pollinators, particularly fruits, vegetables and nuts. 🍐🥑🥕🥜
2️⃣ In Australia, the contribution of honey bees to agriculture through pollination services is valued at around $14.2 billion.😁🧮
3️⃣ AHBIC is the peak national body for Australia's 40,000 registered beekeepers, who manage over 820,000 honey bee hives! 🐝🍯
This World Bee Day, become a friend of AHBIC (https://honeybee.org.au/about/donate/) as an ultimate support for Australia's beekeepers, you'll help us advocate for a more sustainable, secure and prosperous honey bee industry here in Australia.

Always be prepared for anything to happen no matter where you are travelling....
Unloaded the second lot of hives, would say we were halfway out of The Tarkine when we encountered the unexpected.....
One of the U-Bolts on the tandem trailer decided it no longer wished to stay attached and caused a bit of grief.
Rick done a bit of MacGyver work so we could drive it out and park it for the night. Fixed it the next morning done what we need to do before heading home South.
