Dale Honey

Established in 1956, our family-owned beekeeping business in Middlemarch, Otago, is proud to be in its third generation of honey producers. With decades of hands-on experience, we combine traditional beekeeping methods with modern practices to ensure the highest quality honey.
Our commitment to sustainability and ethical beekeeping has meant our white clover honey has earned numerous awards and recognition for its delicate flavour and smooth texture.

Our honey is a true reflection of Otago’s pristine landscapes and our unwavering commitment to quality.

What truly sets us apart is our connection to the land and our community. We work closely with local farmers and landowners to place our hives where bees can thrive in healthy, diverse environments. These partnerships are grounded in trust, mutual respect, and a shared dedication to caring for the land responsibly. We also believe in giving back, from supporting community projects to practicing sustainable, ethical beekeeping that protects our precious pollinators for generations to come.

At the heart of our business is a belief in doing things the right way — every jar of our honey is crafted by hand, with care, and always in partnership with nature and our community.
