Orange Blossom Honey - Tess Pohlner
Jar 550g
This limited-release Orange Blossom Honey features 1 of 23 shortlisted entries from our Beechworth Honey ‘Pollinate! Label Competition, created to celebrate bees, flowers, and food. This artwork was shortlisted from more than 500 submissions and is now part of a fundraiser to help kids build a lifelong connection to bees and nature.
100% of the proceeds of this jar will be donated to the Wheen Bee Foundation. All funds will be used to help kids build a lifelong connection to bees and nature, helping to deliver 1,000 Bee Education Learning Kits to Australian primary schools. Each Learning Kit equips teachers with the resources to help inspire students to understand why bees matter and how they can contribute to protecting nature for life.
Each jar includes an opportunity to nominate a school of your choice for their chance to receive a Learning Kit.
About the Artwork
“A bold graphic style seemed like a fitting choice to represent the structured and repetitive system of pollination. Colonies of bees trace the same path over and over, from hive to flower to orchard. It is industrious, efficient and necessary. Look closer, though, at the individual parts of this system: a single bee, a single flower, a single fruit. Each is minuscule, fleeting, mortal and magnificent in its astounding complexity. This artwork is an attempt to capture both parts of this story.”

A fundraiser helping kids to build a lifelong connection to bees and nature
Your support can equip a school you choose with the resources to teach kids how to protect bees, pollination, and the health of our planet.
Bee Education Learning Kits
Bee Education Learning Kits help teachers inspire the next generation to understand why bees are important and how they can help protect pollination and biodiversity.
Each kit includes teacher lesson plans, resources, and videos for an 11-week unit of work.
Orange Blossom Honey
Orange Blossom Honey is produced in orange groves. Despite flowering annually, Orange Blossom Honey can be scarce as it is dependent on favourable weather and there are limited locations suitable for bees.
Orange Blossom Honey is a lovely light translucent honey usually extra light amber in colour but can range from white to light amber. It captures the heady aromas of fragrant orange blossoms. This unique honey has beautiful floral citrus flavours. Slow to crystallise.
Wheen Bee Foundation
The Wheen Bee Foundation is an Australian not-for-profit charity that promotes awareness of the importance of bees for food security, biodiversity and ecosystem health and funds research projects and programs that address the national and global threats to bees.
100% of proceeds from the sale of Pollinate 550gm Honey Jars will be donated to Wheen Bee Foundation (ABN 84 139 073 082), a registered charity with authority to fundraise in all Australian states and territories (excluding ACT, where no permit is required). Funds will support the distribution of 1,000 pollinator learning kits to schools. See the full T&Cs.
