Bee One Third Raw Neighbourhood Honey 700g

Bee One Third are on a mission to educate Australia on the vital and extraordinary role of our indispensable honey bee.

Bee One Third neighbourhood honey is produced and harvested from rooftop beehives in Brisbane's inner-city and surrounding suburbs.  Experienced apiarists use traditional methods to re-home wild colonies of bees into a hive and install them on rooftops, where they are free to forage though the local parks & gardens in search of the perfect pollens & nectars.  In turn, they provide natural pollination in an urban environment where bees are increasingly absent.

Each precious jar is beautifully crafted, single origin, raw and seasonal, and offers a taste of the local floral diversity that can never be repeated. Neighbourhood honey is unheated, unprocessed and unadulterated maintaining its optimal flavour and nutritional characteristics. 

Image is a guide only, price is for one 700g glass jar of artisan honey. The origin of each jar is selected at random and may be from a different Brisbane region to that pictured. Therefore, you have a unique opportunity to explore seasonal flavours from coastal manuka trees, Brisbane's urban landscapes, Sydney's Northern Beaches, the bloodwoods of Port Macquarie, and more.

you are making a difference:

• Bees pollinate over one third of the global food supply including hundreds of our fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. 
• Honey Bee numbers are declining rapidly due to hive diseases, habitat destruction and exposure to an increasing amount of pesticides in the environment.  Buying local honey from ethically managed hives supports our biodiversity and food security.
