Hive Haven specialises in both European honey bees and Australian stingless native bees. We sell native honey at tourist outlets eg Australia Zoo, the Ginger Factory, Australian Parliament and Glasshouse Planation.
We manufacture an award winning native bee box that alleviates hive overheating and enables the harvest of food safe native honey.
As a local business we are keen to build a hinterland native bee industry. Native bees are effective pollinators and their honey and propolis is anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and has wound healing properties. Recent research (USC) has proven native honey is low GI, making it “good for diabetes”.
