"Victor Croker and Dave Leemhuis were dropping off their daughters at ballet
class in Canberra when they struck up a conversation about beekeeping.

What started out as a chance encounter that day 14 years ago ended up leading
to the development of a new type of beehive that improves the health of
colonies and can increase honey production by a third.

The hives are now proving so popular that 500 are being shipped to the United
States each week. "
