25.01.2022 Delicious lip balm made from bees wax and a few other natural ingredients. Definitely a recipe to try before winter!

24.01.2022 Happy Easter everyone! Away in Mt Perry at the moment and found this honey bee on an orange blossom. Wonderful to see and either its from a wild bee hive or our neighbours have bees!

23.01.2022 Interesting....if only I could train them to do the housework!

23.01.2022 DID YOU KNOW? Beeswax and honey are: ANTIBACTERIAL Like honey, beeswax has antibacterial properties helping keep things clean and reducing the risk of contamination.... This makes it a common ingredient in food wraps, skin treatments, salves and more.

21.01.2022 A step in the right direction

21.01.2022 TEA LIGHTS made from chemical free bees- or soy wax, depending on availability, SHINE JUST AS BRIGHTLY! We have packets of 6 for sale in pink, purple or white, with or without essential oil fragrances.

21.01.2022 How much will I need.....

20.01.2022 Fantastic news. Maybe we should do the same here? Even if these pesticides are not the major reason for colony collapse banning them must be good for the bees and us!

20.01.2022 DID YOU KNOW? Beeswax is: ALL NATURAL Coming from the honeycomb of the honeybee, beeswax is a completely all natural substance straight from Mother Nature.... Honeybees consume nectar and pollen to produce the wax. It takes about 4kg of honey to produce just 1kg of beeswax.

19.01.2022 Who knew there were protective suits for animals....

17.01.2022 John has now harvested the spring honey and was only stung a few times... The bees have been very busy during the mild winter, collecting pollen and nectar from Eucalyptus, Peaches, Lavender and Coriander flowers to make an exceptionally tasting honey. We have HONEY available in 1kg tubs, 400g glass jars and a few containers with the elusive honey comb!

17.01.2022 Fake honey is anything that is not 100 percent produced by little, clever bees. The Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code defines honey as the natural sweet substance produced by honey bees from the nectar of blossoms, which the bees collect and transform themselves within the beehive into honey. Fake honey is generally some honey mixed with other sugar syrups. These syrups come from plants like sugar cane, corn, or rice.... Make sure YOU get the HONEY you deserve by getting the MELINA HONEY brand, the brand YOU can always TRUST.

16.01.2022 Then whats in your jar is very likely to be of inferior quality, and wont have the benefits of natural honey. The Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code defines honey as the natural sweet substance produced by honey bees from the nectar of blossoms, which the bees collect and transform themselves within the beehive into honey. To be sure that youre getting what you pay for, look for a local honey producer in your area and ask where the bees collect their nectar from.... Or ALWAYS get your honey from MELINA HONEY and be certain youre feeding your family the best!

16.01.2022 A few ways to feel better through winter even if you havent got the flu...but you need honey!

14.01.2022 DID YOU KNOW? Beeswax is: ANTIFUNGAL Beeswax is also thought to have antifungal properties preventing the growth of yeasts and other fungi.

13.01.2022 We have available NEW SEASON RAW, NATURAL HONEY FOR A SHORT TIME! Collected by healthy bees from spray free flowers. Just the way honey should bee...

12.01.2022 Interesting and another reason not to use fungicides in the garden!

11.01.2022 Melina Honey now offers chemical free BEESWAX WRAPS! If you are NOT using these already to wrap your goodies, nows the time to start! Different sizes available to perfectly cover your food.

11.01.2022 Heres something to try after the cold weather weve had.

09.01.2022 A cookie recipe for the kids, and me, made using honey instead of refined,white sugar....must be good!

07.01.2022 NEAT FACTS ABOUT BEES! The worker bees are all female and they do all the work for the hive. Workers perform the following tasks inside the hive as a House Bee: Cleaning, feeding the baby bees, feeding and taking care of the queen, packing pollen and nectar into cells, capping cells, building and repairing honeycombs, fanning to cool the hive and guarding the hive.

07.01.2022 Happy Honeybee Day!

06.01.2022 These cant all be grown in Queensland but many definitely can- grow more flowers!

06.01.2022 There are easier ways to get some honey.....weve still got some tubs from the last harvest and will have a fresh batch in the next few weeks. Yum!

06.01.2022 Candles should be made from natural ingredients and thats why we only use our own beeswax or, soy wax when not available, to make our candles. If requested, farm grown flowers and leaves will be added and also a suitable crystal. This candle is Lavender Scent and Flower and Amethyst Crystal.

06.01.2022 BEES HAVE BEEN DECLARED the most important living beings on this planet, the Earthwatch Institute concluded in the last meeting of the Royal Geographical Society of London.

02.01.2022 "Honey is something of an oddity, in that, unlike most foods, it doesnt spoil over time. In fact, the oldest known sample of honey, found in an Ancient Egyptia...n tomb and dated to approximately 3000 years ago, was still perfectly edible. What is it, then, that gives honey this unusual property?" Why Doesnt Honey Spoil? The Chemistry of Honey http://www.compoundchem.com/2014/08/21/chemistryofhoney/

01.01.2022 A bit of Friday poetry
