Our Story

It was 1945 that the founders of Tweeddales, Stuart and Thelma decided to venture into beekeeping. From very humble beginnings they, with their son Don, and with the help and support of his wife Conchita, have evolved the business into one of the largest family owned beekeeping operations in New Zealand..

Operating 19,010 beehives the honey business is an all family affair with four generations involved who are all passionate and dedicated to producing the highest quality natural honey, ranging from high quality Manuka Honey produced off our own lands of 16,000 acres, to the beautifully flavoured Forest Honey (Maori name Rewarewa). Produced also is our Clover blend which is a mixture of Clover and Mixed Wild Flower which gives a delicious mild taste.

Tweeddale Honey with its long bee-keeping history is dedicated to providing quality natural and fully traceable honey which we take passion and pride in producing
