Flow Hive

Flow Hive Passionate about beekeeping, bees and native pollinators, innovation and education. Bees are such fas

The Flow Hive is a revolutionary honey extraction system that is easier on the beekeeper and gentler on the bees. Since our launch in 2015, the Australian-made Flow Hive has inspired tens of thousands of new beekeepers around the world, with over 80,000 hives now flowing in 130 countries. As a certified B Corp, we're committed to doing business in a regenerative, ethical and sustainable manner, whilst also generating a positive impact for pollinators and communities through our research and impact projects. We provide quality beekeeping education, showcasing the world's bee experts through the online education platform TheBeekeeper.org. This initiative supports new beekeepers to become responsible stewards of their bees while raising funds to protect pollinators. We're all about innovation... but it's more important than just harvesting honey in a gentle way. We're passionate about creating community, educating people about the importance of bees, and empowering beekeepers to make a positive change to help protect these important pollinators.

Cedar shares a simple how-to catch a swarm from a palm tree at Flow HQ. 🐝

Warmer weather and longer daylight hours mean our bees are multiplying. Swarms are honeybees' natural way of reproducing; the original queen and half the colony will leave in search of a new home. Swarm prevention is good beekeeping practice and important at this time of year 🌸

Bee colonies have their own natural air conditioning! 🐝❄️

On hot days, bees gather at the hive entrance and fan their wings to help regulate temperature, maintain the brood nest at around 32–35°C (89.6–95°F) and improve ventilation. During nectar flows, fanning also helps reduce moisture in stored nectar to below 18%, curing it into honey. 🍯

🐝 Spot the difference - drone brood vs. worker brood

Worker bee brood is found in smaller, flatter-capped cells, while drone brood develops in larger cells with distinctive, raised, dome-shaped cappings.

Both play an important role in a healthy colony, and learning to recognise the difference is a great skill for any beekeeper. 🌼

Have you spotted both types of brood in your hive? 💛

"Why are you taking honey from the bees?" 🐝
It's a question we hear a lot and it's a fair one!

In this video, Cedar shows how you can partially harvest a Flow Frame, leaving plenty of honey behind for the bees. Removing excess honey can also help prevent overcrowding and reduce the risk of swarming in Spring.

🎥 Watch here to see how it’s done!
