This hive here is looking great, with lots and lots of healthy brood, that will hatch into the next generation of honey bees 🐝 ❓ Did you know that the parasitic Varroa mite breeds under the capped brood? The mites are something all beekeepers struggle with and have to stay on top of. We monitor the level of mites in our hives closely and treat when necessary. The Varroa mite is the main reason why wild bee colonies can’t survive very long, and unfortunately wild bees risk reinfecting kept bees

The 2025 harvest is done ✅✌️ We use gentle escape boards (a one-way exit) to harvest our honey. It’s a simple and effective way to guide the bees out of the honey boxes with minimal stress and disruption— so if you look closely you may notice there aren’t many bees flying around in these clips. We place the boards on the hives one day, then return the next to easily remove the honey boxes 🍯 But the harvest is just the beginning! Next, we move the honey boxes to extraction, followed by processing and bottling. Stay tuned to see the next steps as we take our honey from our farm to your table! 💥 #honeyharvest #fromhivetotable #sustainablebeekeeping #cardronahoney #wanakahoney #branchcreekhoney

A busy day of beekeeping yesterday as we began the 2025 harvest… while also checking the health of our hives and adding queen cells to them to make sure they’re all set heading into winter 🐝 Tomorrow we go back to remove the honey from the hives. Our harvest this year is a little less than we had hoped but it’s actually been a tough season for the bees. The honey flow had a late start with cold weather right up until Christmas and was cut very short as the Cardrona Valley has seen limited rain since New Years so has become very dry - these factors impact flowering plants and therefore nectar availability for our bees. Hopefully we get some relief in the next few weeks! 🌧️ None the less, we’re still excited to share with you the magic of the 2025 season. Coming soon… ✨ #beekeeping #beekeeper #nzbeekeeping #branchcreekhoney #cardronavalley #cardronahoney
