Local Beekeeping Support Group
We help support a group of local beekeepers who meet once a month
to help each other in beekeeping endeavours.
From beginners to experienced, traditional hives to Flow hives
and everything in between - all welcome!
The group meets the first Sunday of each month at 10.30am - venue variable.
The group now communicates via Facebook and is known as
Bayside Beefriends & Beeginners
If you don't use Facebook or need help contacting the group, please email info@hamptonhives.com.au
About Us
Hampton Hives Honey is collected from our own beehives. While many of our colonies are located in the Melbourne Bayside area, we also maintain bees at other apiary sites around Victoria collecting from our rich Australian flora.
Cold-Strained
We collect the honeycomb from our own hives and carefully extract and strain the honey at room temperature. Excessive heat speeds up the processing of honey but unfortunately this can destroy many of the health benefits, so by taking the time to extract at room temperature, the honey retains its maximum health value.
