FROM BEEKEEPER TO MAD SCIENTIST... WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?

School finishes, most teenagers head home to relax... but not our junior beekeeper!

Straight after school, she was back at it, experimenting, creating and dreaming up her next big idea for her very own business, Below Zero Freeze Dried Products.

At this point, we're not sure whether she's a young entrepreneur or the Swedish Chef from The Muppets! 😂👩‍🍳

A little bit of this, a little bit of that, some questionable noises coming from the kitchen and a whole lot of enthusiasm!

BORK BORK BORK! 🤣

Today, we celebrate 'International Day of Rural Women: The Rise of Rural Women'.

I’m thinking of the rural women who show up for their communities every day. Many of them do incredible things quietly, without recognition, simply because they care and believe their community is worth giving their time, knowledge and heart to.

Rural women come in all forms. There isn’t one way to describe us, and there isn’t one path we follow. Our stories, work and contributions are different, but every one of them matters. My own journey as a beekeeper has taken me from the field apiary to classrooms and community centres, and, in 2019, to the main stage at Parliament House in Canberra. I still remember leaving my beesuit behind in the apiary and stepping out in a blue sequined gala dress and my faithful pink Sketchers.. Iconic..!! 🩰🩷

That photo still means so much to me. It captures a moment I never expected, but it also captures who I am: a beekeeper, a rural woman, and someone who wants to stay true to herself wherever the journey leads. I hope that by being unapologetically me, I can encourage another woman to believe that she belongs, that her story matters, and that she doesn’t have to change who she is to make a difference.
To every rural woman doing amazing things in her community: I see you, and I celebrate you. We rise together, and when we support one another, our communities and industries grow stronger.

If you’re a rural woman with an idea, a project or a passion for making a difference, I encourage you to apply for the 2027 AgriFutures Rural Women’s Award. Your story might be exactly the one someone else needs to hear. Queensland applications close 4 November 2026.

Our junior beekeeper has another magic idea...

Bees are her first love. Freeze drying is her obsession.

And something VERY interesting is happening behind the scenes at Below Zero Freeze Dried Products .. 🤫

We're not telling. Yet. But can you guess what it might be? Comment blow with your guess
Stay frosty. 🥶

There’s something so incredibly special about seeing a child’s curiosity take flight. Their eye's light up with pure joy, their smiles so big you can't help but smile along and we can sense their imaginations are creating pure magic! 🤩

That's exactly what we got to experience again these school holidays. We loved spending time with the families at the 'Kindira Kids Bee and Pollinator Workshop', sharing what we know about bees and connecting with our community.
Watching our junior beekeepers listen, ask questions and join in with such enthusiasm reminds us why we love these workshops. Children are our legacy, and we feel so grateful to help spark their interests and help to connect them to our natural world. 🐝💛

A huge thank you to Logan City Council for providing free native plants to all attendees and Wheen Bee Foundation for supplying creative bee activities and learning resources for the children to take home. We extend our sincere thankyou's to Enriching Communities Monarch Glen, Kindira Monarch Glen and the Flagstone Hub for creating this magic learning opportunity and welcoming us, and to everyone who helped make the day so memorable.

Thank you, Bethania Parklands Care Community, for welcoming us into your space. We’re so grateful to have met you all and shared such lovely conversations. Hearing the memories our bee talk brought back to many of you made our visit especially meaningful. 🐝💛

At the heart of what we do is a simple belief: everyone deserves the chance to learn, connect and feel included.
We all have something to contribute to protecting our ecosystems. Our beekeeping workshops are one way we help our community discover the importance of bees through a hands on approach: touch, see, feel and do. It makes learning fun, engaging and accessible.

We love sharing our knowledge and passion for native bees and honey bees with people of all ages and abilities. From schools to community, we hope each experience sparks curiosity, creates happy memories and shows that there are no barriers to beekeeping.

Another bee-utiful day of learning, laughter and hands on fun!

We had the best time exploring the amazing world of honey bees and native bees, mixing STEM learning with plenty of hands on experiences.

From uncapping honey frames and hand spinning the extractor, to learning about our incredible pollinators, there was so much excitement and curiosity. And of course, the favourite part... tasting delicious native bee honey and raw European bee honey straight from the hive! 🍯🐝

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and made the day so much fun, and a special thanks to Logan City Council for sponsoring this incredible school holiday event and supporting opportunities for our community to learn about bees.

We all had an absolute blast! 💛🐝
