A Message from Our Beekeeping Family
Sadly, our family has lost over 50% of our honey bee hives due to Varroa mite infestations. In just one week, strong and thriving hives in Brisbane collapsed and died.
Like many Australian beekeepers, we are facing the challenges of managing this devastating pest while working hard to protect the hives we have remaining at our property.
We remain committed to caring for our bees, learning new management techniques, and doing everything we can to help our colonies survive and recover.
Thank you to everyone who has supported local beekeepers during this difficult time. Your support means more than ever.

“Every hive lost is more than honey—it is thousands of bees, years of breeding, and countless hours of care.”
Losing hives that you’ve worked so hard to build is a significant blow both emotionally and financially.
