Hiveshare
Sign up to receive a year of delicious organic bounty from Irish country bees and share them with the ones you love.

What is Hiveshare?
Imagine that. Honey from your own hive without the chore of minding the bees yourself.
Hiveshare by Brookfield Farm is about sharing the joy of beekeeping – a unique opportunity to invest in an apiary. Receive your raw honey directly from the beekeeper and natural handmade beeswax products from some very well-cared-for, happy bees.
Be the ‘bee’s knees’ when gifting. This is something unique, sourced organically and sustainably from Ireland. Hiveshare makes an excellent present for all occasions – Christmas, Birthdays, Weddings, or a treat for yourself.

What is included in a Brookfield Farm Hiveshare?
Owning a Hiveshare brings year-round bounty from Irish country bees.
Receive the finest sustainably produced delicious raw Irish honey, pure beeswax handmade candles, and balms delivered straight from our farm to your door—all beautifully packaged.
Be part of the Hive, too!
Our plans—Bee Friend, Bee Supporter, and Bee Champion—connect you with your Hive’s seasonal cycles and life through regular updates and celebrations.
Why Hiveshare?
Bees are threatened due to a complicated mix of environmental factors, chemicals used by garden owners and farmers, and a lack of flowers/nectar. Every year, beekeepers lose hives because bees in the colony die. But recently, beekeepers are losing up to two-thirds of their hives. Queen bees are also not living as long—about three years instead of 5. This is happening across Ireland and the world.
Creating Irish honey bee sanctuaries like Brookfield Farm will preserve these valuable and unique insects for future generations.
We look after the bees as you enjoy the incredible flavours and health benefits of raw Irish honey, pure beeswax handmade candles and balms from your Hiveshare subscription!
Our bees forage on trees and wildflowers; the farm’s acres of woodland are filled with bee-friendly trees, and our acres of bee meadows are colourful with wildflowers. It’s also an experience that lasts all year.
Love bees? Love nature? Love the planet? Love quality? Love Community? You’re in the right place.
