Since Father-Son Duo Designed Revolutionary ‘Honey on Tap’ Beehive, There Are 51,000 New Bee Colonies
By McKinley Corbley

Back in 2015, a father-son duo changed the beekeeping game simply by redesigning the traditional beehive – and now, honeybees are benefitting from their profits.

Stuart and Cedar Anderson are the co-creators of the Flow Hive: a brilliantly designed beehive that saves beekeepers hours of work simply by channeling all of its honey into a tap that can be turned on and off at will.

Primary industries minister, Tim Whetstone, said a strong apiary industry was vital for the state's horticulture and agriculture industries.

"The buzz of activity we expect in the Kuitpo Forest Reserve will help address the further 20,000 hives required to meet pollination demand in the South Australian almond industry," Mr Whetstone said.…
