The Bearded Bee harvests honey from backyard hives in the Whitehorse and Monash council areas, as well as the Yarra Valley. Its beekeeping philosophy is based on minimal intervention, with hives placed with avid gardeners who respect the bees' contributions. The business is not interested in mass production, focusing instead on local honey sales to protect bee health.

In addition to selling honey and wax, The Bearded Bee offers bee and swarm removal services and a 'Host a Hive' program for local enthusiasts. Products are available for purchase through its online shop, with local delivery to Whitehorse, Monash, the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, and the Yarra Valley.
