Nannup honey, in this guide, comes from one family and a lot of bees. Foragers Honey is based at Barrabup, near Nannup. It keeps its hives at permanent sites across the South West, chosen for the variety of what flowers around them. The bees aren't moved to chase the season, so the honey changes from year to year with what's in bloom.

Jarrah is golden and slow to set, from a tree that grows only in the South West. Foragers says the tree flowers only every two to three years. Marri comes from the other big forest tree and is an autumn honey. There's a wildflower honey too, and a creamed honey for spreading. Every jar is raw, extracted in a centrifuge and gravity strained rather than heavily filtered. The business says it uses no chemicals on its bees or hives and takes only the honey the colony doesn't need.

Foragers doesn't publish visiting details, so order from its site rather than looking for the hives. Its jarrah is the first pick in our South West gift guide for anyone who misses the region.

Two makers based here, eight products, two categories and two guides.
