Our Bees

Every great jar of honey starts with our bees.

Our bees live in carefully managed hives spread across some of South Australia's most beautiful landscapes — from the wild coastal blooms of the Fleurieu Peninsula, to the rolling vineyards of the Adelaide Hills, to the open plains of the Murraylands. Each hive works in harmony with its surroundings, gathering nectar from native gums, wildflowers, and seasonal crops, creating honey that reflects the character of each region.

We treat our bees with the utmost care and respect. Our beekeeping practices focus on maintaining strong, healthy colonies by giving the bees plenty of space, clean environments, and natural conditions to thrive. We avoid over-harvesting, ensuring the bees always have enough honey to sustain themselves through every season.

For us, it’s not just about honey — it’s about building a future where bees continue to thrive. Their hard work supports not just our business, but the broader environment, pollinating countless plants and crops along the way.

At Beyond the Hive, our bees are part of the family — and when you taste our honey, you’re tasting the story they’ve created.
