Owner Peter Davis

Island Beehive is owned by Peter Davis. A passion for bees and honey permeates the Island beekeeping community with which Peter is intrinsically linked. Peter Davis has lived on Kangaroo Island all his life and grew up around bees kept as a sideline on the family farm.

Being one of the first, and now amongst the biggest organic honey producers in Australia, Peter is a leading voice in the honey production industry in Australia and is pro-active in protecting and promoting the Ligurian Bee heritage. Peter is constantly looking for ways to mentor and encourage people in the production of honey and bee products.

The Island Beehive Company has eight other producers contracted to supply honey. They are expanding their production to enable supply to other markets.
