How to help protect our honey bees – Tip #3 💧Leave water out on hot days or in times of drought. Like many other livestock, bees suffer greatly in extreme heat. By leaving out ‘bee baths’ in summer months or dry periods, you can help keep our honey bee population thriving!

How to help protect our honey bees – Tip #1 🐜If possible, avoid using chemicals in your garden. If you must use chemicals, choose to spray at night when bees aren’t working, and don’t spray your flowering plants. 💛🐝
Victoria – Not just famous for the Great Ocean Road, it’s also home to some great Australian honey 🍯🍯 For your chance to win this delicious Victorian honey visit our Instagram page! ow.ly/nIgk50JoP9w #aushoney #australianhoney #beekeepers
You don’t have to be a professional beekeeper to help protect honey bees 🐝 Over the next week, we will share some tips and tricks on what you can do at home to look after our honey bee population and help out our beekeepers, even if you don’t have a hive yourself!
Without honey bees our diets would be very bland! 🌾 65% of and agricultural crops need bees for pollination 🍽 This means 1/3 of the food on your plate was grown with the help of honey bees. Support our honey bee industry by checking the label and buy 100% Australian honey.
South Australia – Where they make fine wine 🍷 and even finer honey 🍯 Nova Farms Honey has provided 2 delicious 500gm jars of Raw and Unfiltered Honey for you to possibly win in our Home Sweet Home giveaway competition. Visit our Instagram for more info! ow.ly/CIK650JoORq
New South Wales – Home to the Blue Mountains🗻, Sydney Opera House 🎶 and talented honey bees 🐝 3 NSW beekeepers kindly donated these delicious pots of honey to our Home Sweet Home giveaway competition. See what else is on offer over on our Instagram! instagram.com/australianhone…
It’s a spoonful of deliciousness! 🥄🥄🥄 But wait there’s more. Honey bees make more than honey - some products include 💄 Beeswax balms 🕯 Beeswax candles 🥪 Reusable beeswax wraps 🧼 Natural soaps Before you buy, check these products are made with 100% Australian beeswax.
The last recorded data from @agrifuturesau suggest there are 1,800 commercial and 28,000 recreational beekeepers. That means buying 100% Australian honey has never been easier. Buy Australian and support our Aussie beekeepers. #aushoney #australianbeekeeping #australianmade
💛🐝 Support our Aussie beekeepers! Like many other ag industries, Australia’s honey bee industry has been impacted by drought, bushfires and floods. ✅ Show your support for our beekeeping industry by checking the label on the honey you buy to ensure it’s 100 % Australian.
