130 years’ learned
experience
With over 130 years’ learned experience, we/our beekeepers harvest the products of well-tended, hardworking bees with careful handling and eco-friendly practices. You can taste the forest’s natural flavours in Organicsway honey and fortify your wellness with our ethically harvested pure royal jelly. Its complex composition of proteins, amino acids and vitamins are essential to the fast development of strong, healthy and productive hives, and has long been used in Chinese and Western health practices for an array of nourishing therapeutic benefits.
Organicsway is a family apiary business with a four-generation heritage. We source natural bee-made products with expert skill and minimal intervention from our beekeepers in the heartland of Australia’s southeast. At our apiary sites, our happy bees
forage on native flora and pollinate a fertile ecosystem.
The organic diversity of Australia’s bushland is fed by plentiful rain and regenerated through fire, and has more floral species than anywhere else in the world. Bees collect nectar and pollen from a lush habitat, feeding on wattles, banksia and eucalyptus, along with native berries, wild herbs and indigenous flowers.
The result is beautifully perfumed honey and nutrient-rich royal jelly.

About Bees
It is great to learn more about honeybees. It is fascinating to have a look at our hives onsite, observe how bees go out to forage and com back to their ives. It's fun to see they carry two pollen 'balls' at the their rear legs and comb back 'home'.
Courses
It's strongly recommended for new beekeepers to take a short course to learn the basic knowledge and skills. Talking to experienced local beekeeper is very helpful because beekeeping is location based, especially for hobby beekeepers.
Getting Started Beekeeping
Keeping bees is such a joyful and rewarding pastime. It gives you the opportunity to observe the interconnectedness of life, to appreciate the
changing seasons in a new way, and to play an active role in contributing to the health of your environment.
As you get to know your bees, you’ll discover many fascinating aspects of their behaviour. You’ll start to notice little things like how they communicate with each other, the way they construct honeycomb, and which plants are in flower throughout the year. Plus, of course, there’s also the sweetness of having delicious top quality honey to share with your family and neighbours!
