EvokeAG February 2020 – This is the largest trade show Hive Haven has participated in. Hats off to Agrifutures Australia for providing the opportunity to 30 Australian and 10 international startups to display their wares in startup alley. We had the opportunity to to talk all things ‘native bees and honey’ with over 1,300 attendees including farmers, State and Federal agencies.

2nd Australian Native Bee Conference – The highlight of 2019 was taking out the top spot for most ‘effective-innovative’ native bee box at the 2nd Australian Native Bee Conference. It was a huge honour to pitch to judge – Dr Cristiano Menezes who traveled from Brazil to present on the Brazilian Native Bee Industry. Cristiano works for the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation complimented us on our work to alleviate hive overheating associated with increasing heat waves.

Hive Haven was honoured to be announced as a 2019 Finalist in the Sunshine Coast Business Awards & The Queensland Community Achievement Award (top three for Innovative Agriculture).
We’ve set up two eduction/budding hives at Australian Parliament House, Canberra ACT. Hive Haven Native Honey is available for sale in the APH Gift Shop.
