25.01.2022 One week until Spring. Let the bee season begin!

23.01.2022 The Tyalgum Hotel Fishing Club is proudly sponsored by us, Tylagum Honey Thieves and other local business partners. #locals supporting locals

22.01.2022 Ever considered becoming a keeper of honeybees? It is a fabulous hobby if you are highly committed...but be well informed before you commit.

22.01.2022 "A mother's work is never done." Thanks to Paul from Greenwood Farm Bees for this great footage of the queen.

22.01.2022 The Teddy bear Bee - a magnificent Australian native bee and one of the biggest.

21.01.2022 Good morning on a crisp, clear sunny Monday. Bees are like oxygen: ubiquitous, essential, and, for the most part, unseen. While we might overlook them, they lie at the heart of relationships that bind the human and natural worlds. Thor Hanson

20.01.2022 Winter...while the bees cluster closely to create warmth in their hives, the beekeeper gets busy with maintenance: removing wax & propolis from hive components and painting. So much painting!

20.01.2022 Lifecycle of the blackberry - Another pollination success story

16.01.2022 Pears with Derrieres Why? How? Read on...

14.01.2022 Sad Fact Saturday Male bees, called drones, are evicted from the hive in autumn by the worker bees who are all female. Without a home, they die of cold & hunger. They are only useful in Spring & Summer to mate with new young queens. In autumn and winter, all they would do is sit around and eat the winter honey stores. So...out they must go! The queen will breed a new batch of young sons in Spring, ready to meet young virgin 'princesses' from neighbouring colonies. So, over winter, the colony is only females.

13.01.2022 Look at the gorgeous colour variation in these blocks of beeswax. Our friendly magpie is impressed!

13.01.2022 Sunshine and happiness! After 2 days stuck inside due to heavy rain, the bees are stretching their wings in the beautiful sunshine again.

13.01.2022 MEAD, a fermented honey drink, is possibly the world's oldest brewed alcoholic beverage, dating back some 4,000 years. Not for this batch though...it won't make it past Christmas!

12.01.2022 Help the bees...plant some of these.

12.01.2022 The wattles in flower at the moment are beautiful.

11.01.2022 Don't take the risk...buy raw, pure honey from your local beekeeper.

11.01.2022 Brewing up some moonshine

10.01.2022 The hives are so full of delicious, spring honey that our bees have even built honeycomb in every lid. They need more space; so it's time for the first harvest of the season.

09.01.2022 Yikes! What's happening to my Honey? Have you ever noticed your honey looking a little grainy or becoming solid? Dont throw it out! Your honey is perfectly good; its just changing with the cold weather. Pure, raw unheated honey has a natural tendency to crystallise (also called candied honey). It means that nutritious pollen hasnt been filtered out and important enzymes havent been damaged by pasteurisation. Can I still eat it?... Absolutely! It is still as nutritious and sweet as ever! Some people prefer their honey crystallised. It is much easier to spread on toast. Why does it crystallise? Honey is a supersaturated sugar solution made up of water and a mix of sugarsmostly glucose and fructose. Over time & at cold temps, the sugar begins to precipitate out of the solution, which means the water separates from the glucose, causing the sugar to take crystal form. But I want my honey runny! Slow down, stop your honey crystallising or restore it to liquid by storing it in a warm place or stand the jar in a bowl of hot water regularly. Do not microwave it as that will destroy the enzymes that make raw, pure honey so good for your health.

09.01.2022 A sweet animated children's story.

09.01.2022 Ahhh...a perfect afternoon after the storm in Tyalgum.

07.01.2022 Beekeeper at work

07.01.2022 August is the month when the almond trees flower in Victoria & South Australia. Almonds are a huge agricultural industry for both Australian & overseas markets.They are completely dependent on bees for pollination. So right now, over 220,000 colonies of honeybees have converged in that region to do what they do best.

06.01.2022 We are thrilled to supply the Three Rs with our pure beeswax for their gorgeous wraps. Locals supporting locals.

05.01.2022 Brrrrr...it's a bit wet and wintery today.

03.01.2022 In expectation of World Bee Day this Wednesday (20th of May) here is our old infographic on meaningful steps towards genuine bee conservation. Be critically-min...ded when reading all of the 'saving' bees stuff that will be everywhere online this week. If a post or article doesn't at least mention these four themes, below, it is probably missing the point about what the conservation of bee species is all about. See more

03.01.2022 Thank you Curly for sharing your beautiful poem and majestic image.

03.01.2022 Oh, what a beautiful morning.

03.01.2022 The billy goat weed is supplying good pollen. Look at it packed onto her legs.

03.01.2022 FEARsome Fact Friday Bees were used as weapons of war in the middle ages. When the enemy army approached, bee hives were thrown down from the city walls or castle ramparts, blanketing the invaders with thousands of angry, stinging bees.

02.01.2022 Yippee! The winter maintenance jobs are progressing well! The repainted hive boxes are looking fresh, cheerful and ready to weather another season.
