Shepparton and the Goulburn Valley in northern Victoria are synonymous with fruit production — and the orchards that produce famous Goulburn Valley fruit also support excellent honey production. Bees play a crucial role in pollinating stone fruit, apple, and pear orchards across the region.
Local beekeepers produce diverse honeys from orchard blossoms, river red gum forests along the Goulburn and Murray rivers, and the surrounding box woodland. The region's warm, dry summers and cold winters create distinct flowering seasons.
Yellow box and grey box honeys from the surrounding woodlands are premium varieties, while orchard blossom honeys have a delicate, fruity character. River red gum honey from the floodplain forests is rich and full-bodied.
