We source ALL our honey from WA. WA is a vast state bordered by ocean and desert. When we say vast we mean enormous, gigantic, big, huge! It is 2, 500, 000 km square. That's 10 times greater than the UK, 7 times bigger than Germany, and equal in size to China - but with 1 billion LESS people. Less than 2 million people live in this huge area. |
WA is isolated from the rest of the world by ocean and desert. The Indian ocean is all along the west coast of WA and immense deserts are on the eastern border. The capital city, Perth, is known as the world's most isolated city. Elixir Honey is based in our own forest, a 5 hour drive south of Perth. |
WA has the most wonderful & diverse plant species of any left in the world. We have a biosphere close by. Our bees get to buzz about in the long sunny days on our ancient continent among blossoms from native trees and bushes such as Jarrah, Banksia , Blackbutt, Bullich, Dryandra, Flooded gum, Hakea, Karri, Mallee, Marri, Mort, Parrot Bush, Peppermint, Powder bark, Redgum, Wandoo, Yate, York Gum & Wildflowers. |
