At Buzz and Bone, our story begins long before the sanctuary itself. The founder’s family has been practicing beekeeping in Brazil for generations, passing down a wealth of knowledge about the care of bees, sustainable hive management, and the vital role these pollinators play in nature. Inspired by this heritage and a lifelong passion for animal rescue, our founder combined these two loves to create a sanctuary where bees and rescued animals thrive side by side.

Our Redland Dog Sanctuary Honey is made entirely on-site, where rescued dogs roam freely and our dedicated team cares for each hive with meticulous attention. Every day, hands-on care ensures that our bees remain healthy, productive, and happy, while creating a sustainable environment that benefits all the creatures who call the sanctuary home. Visitors to Buzz and Bone have the rare opportunity to witness this harmony in action through our educational apiary tours.

During these tours, guests are guided through a working apiary where they can observe the inner workings of the hives up close and learn about the challenges bees face in the modern world. From understanding their complex social structure to seeing the careful process of honey production, every aspect is designed to educate, inspire, and connect people to the natural world. Guests also enjoy samples of our in-house honey and other products, offering a taste of the careful, sustainable practices that make our sanctuary’s efforts so special.

But the impact goes beyond the bees. Every visit and every purchase supports the rescued dogs and other animals at our sanctuary, providing them with safe spaces, daily care, and a loving environment where they can heal and thrive. By participating in our tours, guests contribute directly to conservation efforts that protect pollinator habitats and ensure a better future for animals and ecosystems alike.

Buzz and Bone isn’t just about education…it’s about connection, stewardship, and action. Visitors leave with a deeper understanding of the bees’ critical role, the importance of sustainable beekeeping, and the ways we can all help protect wildlife and the environment. Our sanctuary is a place where people can see firsthand how compassion, care, and knowledge come together to make a meaningful difference.
