Bees R Us Beekeeping Supplies

Bees R Us sell local honey, beeswax and honey inspired products and beekeeping supplies. We make our own products. Ingredients that don’t come from bees is sourced from organic shops. Visit Bees R Us at our shop or local markets on weekends.

Our bees live a happy life foraging and collecting nectar from the flowers of the season around the forests and farm lands of Braidwood, NSW. The area, well known for its environmentally friendly and conscious farming practices, welcomes the bees in their pursuit of following the the flowering events and the honey flow and in the same time, helping them to bear fruit.

Bent Shed Produce

Bent Shed Produce specialises in the different, unusual, and really local. Have you tried the native Australian mountain pepperberry? It’s hotter than black pepper, with a fabulous herby zing. Or what about roasted and ground wattleseed, giving your daily coffee a rich coffee, chocolate and hazelnut flavour? Lemon myrtle is “more lemony than lemon”, without the additional liquid, while aniseed myrtle brings a lovely liquorice flavour to sweet and savoury dishes. Then there’s warrigal greens - the Australian native spinach. It kept Captain Cook’s crew from dying of scurvy while they were wandering around Botany Bay. Use like English spinach but without turning into a sort of green sludge. And then there’s our rainbow-shelled eggs from our flocks of heritage pure-breed and farmyard-cross poultry (chicken, ducks, and guinea fowl). We raise our own birds, and occasionally can provide live poultry for those looking to bring the rare and unusual into their own yards. The next step is into meat production, so you can taste chicken the way your ancestors did; as a rare treat, with crispy skin and amazing flavour. Come and try something new with us!

Bungonia Creek Wines, Plants & Produce

At Bungonia Creek Wines, Plants and Produce we like to keep busy. David (an ex Strategy Consultant) and Melissa (a Naturopath) retired from Sydney 6 years ago for a quieter lifestyle and have never been busier. We produce high quality wine, vigorous plants and organic produce by following sustainable permaculture and holistic management practices. This includes the implementation of aquaponics systems as a means of producing nutritious food using about 1% of the water for equivalent production in soil. We have recently implemented a Hugel Kulture bed and a wicking bed, both of which aim to use less water than conventional methods. We welcome visitors who wish to learn more about these techniques.

This boutique winery produces several varieties of wine: Sav Blanc, Rose, Merlot, Cab Sav, and our new addition – Shiraz. Our vines are now 20 years old and producing excellent grapes. All are hand pruned, hand picked and biodynamically sprayed during the season. All wines are available to taste at the stall each market day, and at our cellar door on Sundays. We love our wines and we hope you do too. Come and taste them at our stall.
