FLOW HIVE TAKES OUT AUSTRALIA’S
HIGHEST DESIGN HONOUR
2016 Good Design Award of the Year.

Less labour, more love

Turn the Flow Key and watch as pure, fresh honey flows right out of the hive and into your jar. No mess, no fuss, no heavy lifting, and no expensive processing equipment.

Through the clear end-frame view, you can see when the honey is ready without opening up the hive. The extraction process is so gentle, the bees barely notice at all. Our revolutionary Flow system makes the extraction process far less stressful for the bees and so much easier for the beekeeper.

Our online shop is open for Flow Hive, Frames & Accessories, enter the shop here.

TESTIMONIALS FROM AROUND THE WORLD

  • It has been really exciting to be included in the first automatic honey-harvesting device in history. I am really proud of what the Andersons have achieved. Cedar gave me the first jar of honey ever harvested in this way and it is still in my pantry, too precious to be eaten. Congratulations, you two.

  • We absolutely love our Flow Hive here in Washington State. Thank you for such a great product. I have quite a few friends who are very interested in bees. I tell them "Flow is the only way to go!"

    Makes it easy on you and the bees.

  • My mentor asked me to help with his 1st Flow Hive harvest.
    He has been a bee keeper for 38 years and was very skeptical about the Flow Hive's. After seeing my Flow Hive working so well, he decided to purchase one as well.
    To say the least, he is very happy with how it does not bother the bee's  and such little cleanup involved since you don't need to use conventional extraction methods.
    So if he can convert to Flow Hives, anyone can.

  • I need to take a Minute to thank the Flow Hive team for coming up with such and amazing Honey Super.
    It has been our second year with The Flow Hives and it's just Amazing how the girls don't Evening know you are drawing the honey out. They don't get injured or stress and so much LESS work than removing a super and cutting the wax cappings off each side of the frames and spinning all the frames and let's not forget the clean up. We have harvested the Flow Hive twice this summer and the girls are just working to fill the frames up again.
    Of course you still need to do regular Brood Box inspections, which always tells a bee keeper a whole lot of info.

    Flow Hive Is The WAY TO GO .

    Thanks Again Flow Hive.

“the beekeeper’s dream”…

Many years ago, I went down to one of my beehives, which I knew was a pretty wild hive, so I put on the bee veil and pressed the gaffer tape back on the mesh that covered the rips in it. I put on my gloves and fired up the smoker and blew plenty of smoke into the hive. When I opened the lid my suspicions were confirmed. The bees weren’t happy about being disturbed.

The hive was packed with bees and it was near impossible to get the honey out without squashing lots of them. The bees became grumpier and started to sting me through my beekeeper suit. I put the hive back together as quickly as I could, squashing more bees as the lid went on and ended up running away across the field, thinking, “There has to be a better way!”

So, my Dad Stuart and I set to work on a decade long task of inventing the beekeeper’s dream. We are so happy to say that now you can harvest the honey with virtually no disturbance to the bees. It’s a dream come true for us and we are actually quite surprised ourselves at just how well our Flow™ Frames work. After a decade of work, it’s so exciting to be finally bringing our Flow™ hive invention to the world. CEDAR ANDERSON
