Your teacher
Earthbound Honey was established in 2006 by Terry and Karlene Shaw-Toomey. Wanting a better life for their three boys, Terry left his job as Production Director for a city-based communications company and started working with the bees. A year later Karlene reduced her workload as a landscape gardener and joined him. They now both work from their 11 acre property in the beautiful Bethells Valley, lying north-west of Auckland.
