Northern Beaches NSW Neighbourhood Honey

$5.50 AUD

Positioned in the Northern Coastal Suburbs of Sydney, our bees are the healthiest and happiest on the coast, with a year-round supply of seasonal nectar and pollen available at their door, due to the large number of beautiful yards and nature reserves.

Honey produced in the Northern Beaches is a pure reflection of the varying landscapes that the upper coastal regions of Sydney have to offer. From the southern bays of Mosman, to the forested tip of Foley's Hill, this honey is in high demand for its unique flavour and texture profile, and in short supply due to our shorter seasons in the southern states.

As the bees fly far and wide, visiting flowers within a 5km radius of their hives. We have a range of locations in the Northern Beaches region, so depending on their position, the bees will be foraging for nectars not far from their location. Our locations include, but are not restricted to, Frenches Forest, Mona Vale, Mosman, Narrabeen and Terry Hills.

Our seasonal honey is harvested at the end of each climatic season to ensure we capture the specific flavour and textural profile of the former season's flowerings. From batch to batch and location to location, our honey will change in flavour, texture, profile and natural sugar content.

Port Macquarie NSW Neighbourhood Honey

$5.50 AUD

With apiary sites positioned at every edge of the Port Macquarie coast, our bees forage through the lands of the Hastings River all the way down to the Bloodwood Forests of Queens Lake. Our Port Macquarie bees are privileged to be selecting nectars and pollens from the finest natives and flowering species.

Our Port Macquarie Neighbourhood Honey is a seasonal reflection of the diversity of flowers found in this coastal pocket, known for its lush forests, native flora and diverse wildlife. A truly delicious and unique representation of the coastal Spring and Summer seasons.

Our Port Macquarie bees are foraging up and down the coastal regions surrounding the Port Macquarie hub. From the caramel scented tea-tree lakes of Port Macquarie’s inlet roads, to the bloodwoods of the Southern Channel, the bees are always feeding on pure & clean flowers. Port Macquarie is a coastal prime land for beekeeping, where bees survive on native nectar and pollen all year round. 

Our seasonal honey is harvested at the end of each climatic season to ensure we capture the specific flavour and textural profile of the former season's flowerings. From batch to batch and location to location, our honey will change in flavour, texture, profile and natural sugar content.

Raw Honeycomb A-Grade Frame 3/4 Depth

Raw Honeycomb A-Grade Frame 3/4 Depth

$72.00 AUD

Our A-grade comb honey is selected for its purity, colour, flavour & most importantly, its virgin wax grade (1st cycle through the hive), ensuring the softest, most delectable mouth-feel for when you pair this premium product with any range of delicious accompaniments.

Honeycomb is textural, mildly sweet, and completely edible!

Export-level, premium virgin honeycomb.

From our retail slabs to our full-frame combs, our honeycomb is a statement piece on any cheese board of seasonal menu. Available in a variety of sizes and styles, it's the perfect feature for your next private event, or simply slathered over crumpets at home.

There are many ways for you to incorporate honeycomb in your day to day diet or within your hospitality venture.

  • Paired perfectly with cheese and crackers, used as an accompaniment as you would quince paste.
  • With charcuterie or on a breakfast board or on house baked granola, when entertaining guests or creating a seasonal menu special.
  • Smothered over crumpets or warm sourdough toast, above a generous layer of salted butter (we recommend Pepe Saya Butter for the full flavour experience).
  • Cubed over granola, warm oatmeal or porridge, comb honey will melt into the dish, providing a textural and sweet addition to your seasonal breakfast choice.
The beeswax found in the honeycomb is 100% edible and digestible. Beeswax is made from the natural secretions of bees, formed originally by collecting nectar from flowers. When bees ingest nectar (or honey), wax is formed into "scales" by eight wax-producing glands in the abdominal region of the female worker bees. Beeswax is most commonly known as a hardened oil, but in fresh honey comb, the layers of wax are only very thin. So, don't fret ... it's healthy and delicious!
All of our honeycomb slabs are cut by hand and weighed according to their container and label weight. Premium comb can often vary in colour when varying dark nectar sources are in flower. It must be understood that beeswax and honey are natural products, and the environment around where our bees are positioned has a seasonal impact on each one of our comb producing regions.

Settler Cut Flowers Seeds

Settler Cut Flowers Seeds

$4.20 AUD

Nope, it’s not a nickname this time (how would that fit in an envelope?) it’s one of the world's most beloved fragrant flowers. Easy peasy to grow up a light frame and enjoy the scent at head height. Comes in divine lilac (not the grandma colour, the stylish one) and sweetheart pinks and purples. 
Lives for less than a year but forever in your memory.

Pansy
No need to chase the white rabbit down the hole when the musical classic will come to you. If you're lucky their bright little faces will pop up the year after next and surprise you too! You can learn a lot of things from the flowers... 
All in the golden afternoon.

Alyssum
Hardy and self seeding, alyssum is a joy to grow with lightly honey scented (you know who to expect) and pure white flower heads covering the whole plant en masse throughout the year. Bees will dance all over it!

Settler Flower Nectar Seeds

Lavender
*ehem* did anyone else know to deadhead lavender!? It's the perfect plan. Second year in I can look good bearing arms full of blooms when I visit, and 100% expect more for myself and the bees.

Salvia
“To the victor belongs the spoils”. Victor = you. Spoils = long flower spikes en masse and smug satisfaction. This salvia will bring bees and admirers to your garden with its rare blue tones and (the best part) they are surprisingly easy to care for! Each plant will live for around a year and reach 50cm tall.

Ammi Majus - 'Queen Annes Lace'
If only Lorde had known – you can have royalty in your garden if not your blood. Queen Anne’s Lace is stunningly intricate with lace like (well duh) white cluster flowers which attract bees and compliments alike. A dainty and whimsical plant which lives for around a year at 100cm tall. Grow for a touch of yesteryear. Or to be cutting edge. Full circle.
