Upper Beaconsfield Certified Organic Apiaries, Beaconsfield Upper, VIC

Beekeepers & Organic Raw Honey Producers in Victoria, Australia We are VicHoney, the online presence of Upper Beaconsfield Apiaries. We are a family-run boutique bee and organic honey apiary based 50km south east of Melbourne in the foothills of The Dandenongs. Our aim is to produce the highest quality Australian eucalyptus organic honey through our own well managed beehives. Our organic honey is cold-extracted and is NOT blended with imported honey or with different honeys to alter its colour or taste. Our honey is purely what our bees produce during the seasonal flowering of the native Australian eucalyptus trees. We provide a fee-based live bee swarm removal service during the warmer months of the year. Experience Early Season and Summer Season Beginners Course with Alf and Sharon who have over 35 years experience of keeping bees and producing honey in Victoria. From Spring onwards, we will have bees for sale for beginners and established beekeepers to add to their own boxes. Our Passion We are passionate about bees and believe it is vital to maintain healthy beehives, as you would for any other livestock. We believe that Australian eucalyptus honey is superior honey and celebrate the unique flavours obtained from different eucalypt trees. We would like you, the consumer, to know more about the honey you eat and to be aware that honey is healthiest when not finely filtered (all pollens removed) or heated to obtain and keep a runny consistency. Organic honey is best in its purest form.
