Through bee rescue, pollination, and education, we’re building a scalable model for pollinator care and ecosystem resilience at a local level. We’re also promoting pathways into sustainable beekeeping, supporting agri-tech, mentoring emerging beekeepers, and making space for marginalised communities to take part.

Rooted in the Ranges. Powered by Purpose.
Mount Macedon Honey is a family owned and operated, purpose-driven beekeeping initiative based on Mount Macedon home, servicing the Macedon Ranges and surrounds. Whilst it maybe swarm collection and honey that we’re best known for, it’s also how we begin deeper conversations about pollinator health, food security, ecological balance, and the future of Australian beekeeping.

Our work aims to connect people - local communities, landholders, growers, and beekeepers through shared action, sustainable practices, and place-based learning.

Our Work in Action
Our Work in Action
Sustainable Beekeeping
We manage colonies with a focus on bee health, biosecurity, and seasonal integrity
Pollination Services
We partner with growers and fellow Beekeepers to improve yields and strengthen pollinator populations across orchards, paddocks, and gardens.
Hive Hosting Program
We rehome rescued colonies and manage hives across farms, backyards and bush blocks.
Education & Mentoring
From school sessions to one-on-one mentoring, we empower people to understand, support, and step into beekeeping.
Why It Matters?
Why It Matters?
Pollinators, People, and Ecosystems in Balance
Australia’s pollinators, including managed honey bees and countless wild species, face growing threats from pests like varroa, habitat decline, and chemical exposure. Through bee rescue, education, and pollination services, we help communities understand the vital role pollinators play in both agriculture and biodiversity.
As we grow, our work aims to restore balance to local ecosystems through partnered regeneration activities, whilst strengthening the future of sustainable beekeeping in Australia.

Together - Building a Brighter Future
Mount Macedon Honey is committed to more than maintaining hives — we’re investing in what comes next and always looking for partners in our journey.
Our vision includes:
Supporting Semi-Commercial and Recreational Beekeeper participation in the Australian honey industry.
Further developing Agri-tech enabled pollination and monitoring solutions.
Creating accessible training pathways for new and aspiring beekeepers.
Making inclusion a priority, by designing programs for people with disability and others facing barriers to industry access.
Laying the groundwork for habitat restoration and biodiversity partnerships.
Having bigger conversations on the back of Bees and Honey.
Building community centred around the people, places and pollinators of the Macedon Ranges.
Continue doing our part in building a better future.
