It’s time
After nearly 15 years of running my native stingless bee hobb/business it is time for me to close the business side and to just focus on my hobby.
I will no longer be providing services like hive splitting and honey harvesting and will no longer be providing products like hive boxes and roofs.

If you need and assistance with your bees I would highly recommend Steve Flavel at Clontarf on the Redcliffe Peninsula. He is a friendly helpful expert in keeping native stingless bees.
You can contact Steve through his impressive website at Hivecraft.com.au

It has been an enjoyable, challenging and fulfilling period in my life. I have had the pleasure of making many new friends and meeting hundreds of lovely people.

I never dreamt that nearly 6,000 people would chose to follow my page or that I would have a book published.

Going forward I plan to do a lot more fishing and continue to enjoy my grandchildren and my bees.

Thank you everyone, cheers and regards
Greg

Nashville State School Log Hive

We have donated a rescued log hive to some of our grandchildren’s school for the school’s Garden Club
After transporting the hive to the school we did a lunch time presentation to the garden club members. Which was enjoyable for us as much as for the kids with a couple of display hives with perspex viewing panels helping to explain to the kids what is going on inside their log hive.
The kids asked great questions with one asking if my phone message bank starts with the words “buzz buzz”
Payton and Bailey the two older grandchildren in the photo helped explaining what was going on in the display hives for the other kids. They did a great job.
