Jo the bee keeper

The bees chose me, and that's how Crawford Honey was born. It all began when I returned from a holiday to find that a colony of bees had taken up residence in one of our possum boxes. Intrigued and inspired, I quickly acquired a Flow Hive, relocated the bees to their new home, and dove into the fascinating world of beekeeping. Fast forward a few years, and we now have two thriving hives in our backyard in Ashgrove. The honey we produce is raw—straight from the hive to the jar with no spinning or heating involved. It’s pure, unadulterated honey, and the flavour is nothing short of spectacular. As a chef, I've also crafted a couple of unique products available at Gather.
