This is a very in-depth educational and hands on tour. You won't find another like it, it's great value for money!
We will give you a tour where you will see the inside and discuss all parts of an empty beehive, see how the bees live, learn of the different roles bees play in the hive. You will learn about the extraction process, hold a full frame of honey, taste and learn about the amazing flavours of honey produced on KI. You then will have an opportunity to purchase products from our store.

BEEKEEPING EXPERIENCE
This is a fun, hands on, family friendly, educational and unique experience where you will learn about the magnificent Bees!
We deliver this experience on our working honey farm and this is a true hands on experience to share with you the process of being a beekeeper and how we produce some of the best honey in the World.
THE EXPERIENCE: We have around 250 operational hives with up to 50,000 resident bees per hive at any given time. You will be suited up in a beekeeping outfit and then head out to the hives to learn and see what happens inside the hive. We will share with you the workings of an operational productive hive, see the smoking process, open their home and check out the busy bees doing their thing. We will look out for the Queen Bee and the different stages of development. You will get a great insight as to what they do with Honey, Pollen and Propolis within the hive, hold a frame of bees and touch the honeycomb.
Once we conclude at the hive we will head to our shed where you will see the how the extraction process is set up and observe how it works, then taste some of the best honey in the world! We have up to six varieties.
Children are welcome but must be accompanied by a paying adult and 100 cm tall. Please allow 2 hours for this experience.
Disabled are welcome but must be accompanied by their paying adult carer. They must be capable of interaction and getting dressed in a suit.
OUR FARM
We are a family farm, and are very blessed to be surrounded by the most beautiful fields. And we have the most interactive and gorgreous animals in our property! We invite you to come and visit us, and have a very special experience with our furry friends: feed our lovely Kangaroos, Chloe & Zoe; play with our dogs and spot our resident wild Koalas living on our trees! And we can't forget to mention our pet cow Faith & goats! We now have Kangaroo Island coffee roasters van lacated on farm, so you can grab a coffee / chocolated or a chocloate treat while your here.
