Author Bio

Cedar Anderson has been a beekeeper since the age of six, following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather before him. Growing up on a bushland 'intentional community' in northern New South Wales, Australia, Cedar didn't have a TV. Instead, he spent his time tinkering and coming up with crazy inventions to delight his friends and family. Cedar lives on the far north coast of NSW with his partner Kylie and their two children Jarli and Mella.

Stuart Anderson is a life-long beekeeper and before the launch of the Andersons' incredible invention, he was the director of a not-for-profit community organisation based in Lismore, New South Wales, Australia. Living in Brunswick Heads, NSW, Stu is still an avid beekeeper with a passion for the natural world and a family man with four kids and eight grandchildren.
