Our Story


Dinkum Honey began in 2018 when Patrick Cordwell established his first beehive on the family farm in Serpentine, Western Australia.

With just a single colony, a passion for beekeeping and the encouragement of supportive parents, what started as a hobby has steadily grown into a family business built on hard work, perserverance and a deep respect for bees and the Australian bush. Every season brings new challenges, new lessons and new rewards—and we're still loving the journey.

Today, we continue to harvest, extract, process and package every jar ourselves. By keeping our honey raw, unheated and minimally processed, we preserve the natural flavour, enzymes and character that make genuine Western Australian honey so special. Because we manage every step of the process, we can confidently tell our customers exactly where each jar of honey comes from and how it was produced.

Dinkum Honey simply wouldn't exist without the incredible support of our customers, family, friends and the local farming community. We're especially grateful to the landowners and dear friends who allow our Dinkum Honey apiary to access their properties assisting us to produce the unique range of native Western Australian honeys we are so proud to share.

To everyone who has purchased our honey, written a positive review, recommended our products or supported our journey—Thank You! Your endorsement allows us to keep doing what we love, and we couldn't do it without you.
