The ABC found a great story about a Bee hive with tap to collect honey invention called the Flow Hive designed by father and son from northern NSW Australia.
Essentially, the bees do not need to be disturbed because of a clever internal plastic structure which breaks the honey cell without having to disassemble the hive and allows the honey to ooze out into a jar! How magic is THIS!
These guys are running a funding campaign to raise enough money for bulk manufacturing and it seems they were swamped with investors - why wouldn't they... This invention could revolutionise beekeeping around the world!
Apparently, they intend to start manufacturing the flow hives in Brisbane and then possibly around the world.
How amazing is this Aussie ingenuity - I mean I don't know them from a bar of soap but guys like this father and son team make me proud to be Australian.
What a wonderful story and I wish them all the best.
