The Honey Shop by Beechworth Honey

Formerly known as Beechworth Honey Experience, the Honey Shop by Beechworth Honey is where you can buy locally made honey, taste test more than 30 100-percent Australian honey varieties, see live working bees up close. Following this devastating bushfires of 2019/2020, Beechworth Honey has created a Bee Rebuild and Recovery Fund to support bees and beekeepers over the next decade as they recover from the crisis. The generations-old beekeeping company is always worth a visit to stock up on its award-winning honey, honey-based sodas and honeycomb chocolate bars, and to learn about the importance of bees to our agricultural system. It's open daily and, though unstaffed, the Bee School also welcomes visitors for drop-in opportunities to learn more buzzy facts.
