Hive Hosting
Host or purchase a healthy honeybee colony and hive and enjoy the benefits of raw honey straight from the hive, pollination and more. The Backyard Honey beekeepers make this process easy. They provide the necessary hive and apiary skills to safely install and maintain a honeybee hive in your own backyard.
Education
Backyard Honey provide safe real-life opportunities for clients of all ages to explore life in a honeybee colony, watch live bees at work , taste raw honeys, hear the buzz, handle apiary tools and talk to the beekeepers. Our bee incursions are tailored to support curriculum, community and corporate interests.
About Us
It started in the family’s backyard..
​
Backyard Honey was founded on a simple idea — helping people connect with bees, local food systems, and the environment through sustainable urban beekeeping.
​
Today, we manage hives across Melbourne and Victoria, producing small-batch raw honey while supporting pollination, biodiversity, and community education.
Our work includes:
-
Beehive hosting and maintenance
-
Raw local honey and beeswax
-
Swarm removal and bee relocation
-
Beekeeping services and education
-
Pollinator advocacy and sustainability programs
We believe healthy bee populations are essential to healthy communities. Through every hive we maintain, we aim to strengthen local ecosystems, improve garden pollination, and inspire the next generation of beekeepers.
Backyard Honey encourages everyone to Bee Local — supporting local pollinators, local food production, and sustainable urban biodiversity.
