Meet your
beekeepers
Two brothers. A working apiary.
Around 300 hives on the NSW Central Coast.
Our colonies. Our care.
On your farm and throughout the year.
The hands behind the hives.
The colonies we bring are our own, not brokered. The people placing them on your farm are the same people looking after them the rest of the year.
You’ll deal direct with the beekeeper, not a booking desk. The person who checks your hives is the person who answers the phone.
Varroa monitoring,
part of the job.
Our hives are monitored before moving. During hire, your beekeeper handles the required care and management.
The hire at a glance.
We work out what the job needs, then quote it.

Where we deliver

- Central Coast
- Hunter Valley
- Sydney Basin

Plans change?
Keep us in the loop
Flowering shifts. Weather turns.
A quick call helps us work around it.
Call 0477 990 077
Flowering comes early or late
Ring us as soon as you know. We’ll tell you what we can shift and what’s already committed somewhere else.
Spraying comes up
Give us a heads up before it’s booked. Some products mean the hives come off the block, and that changes the job for both of us.
The paddock’s too wet
We’ll find another placement or another day. A bogged truck helps nobody.
You need to cancel
Call us as early as you can. We’ll talk through your options and any costs before anything’s locked in.

Questions growers ask
Anything else? Contact us here.
Will the hives do the job?
We check the colonies before they move and agree the hive numbers for your crop, area and layout. Your beekeeper handles the agreed care while they’re on your farm.
Will they turn up on time?
We agree delivery and collection dates with you. If flowering moves, call as soon as you know so we can check what can shift around other bookings.
How many hives do I need?
Tell us your crop and hectares and we’ll suggest a range before you commit. If you have a stocking rate from last season, bring it to the conversation. The minimum booking is 40 hives. Placements usually run 4 to 8 weeks. Need a shorter one? Ask us. If we can make it work, we will.
What’s it cost?
From $165 per hive for a four-week placement, plus delivery from $2.20 per km return. Your quote accounts for hive numbers, transport, access, time on farm and care.
What’s included?
Health-checked colonies, delivery and placement, hive care, collection on the agreed day and direct contact with your beekeeper.
How far ahead should I book?
Get in touch when you have a rough flowering window. We’ll check availability and work through the timing with you.
I’ve never hired bees before. Is that a problem?
No. Start with your crop, location, hectares and rough flowering dates. We’ll talk through hive numbers, access and what needs to happen on the farm.
Do you cover my area?
We work across the Central Coast, Hunter Valley, Sydney Basin and Mid-North Coast, up to Coffs Harbour. Further out? Ask us. If we can’t do it properly, we’ll say so.
Let's talk
Check your dates
Tell us a little about your farm. We’ll check the dates, ring you about numbers and access, then send a quote.
