All the honey is processed at Beechina in a quality assured processing plant.
You can view the honey being extracted, by appointment.
Our gift shop is open every Sunday from 10am until 4pm for honey tasting and sales.
Honey is packed in bulk and sent to Wescobee for local retail and export sale. Honey is kept in small quantities for packaging under our own label at various local outlets throughout the Perth hills (see outlets page) We do have Jarrah honey and we also make creamed honey.
There is no wastage from the beehive, every product is useable.
