Started Sweet Bee Organics after searching high and low for a safe, eco-friendly sun cream for her two boys.

In the summer of 2019, Hollie was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cervical cancer. Having undergone a radical hysterectomy to remove the tumour, she decided to opt out of the chemotherapy and radiation which was recommended to her after learning the cancer had spread to her lymph nodes. Instead, Hollie chose to heal herself through natural medicines, herbs and diet to help her stay in remission.

Promised herself that if she survived, she would put all her energies into moving forwards with Sweet Bee and sharing the remedial quality of her precious products.

Once off bed rest, ‘Winter Wellness’, an elderberry elixir, was born. Then came the legendary ‘Sweet Sleep Magnesium Butter’, originally made for her youngest who was struggling to sleep.

Gradually the range of products has blossomed, but Sweet Bee Organics still makes everything by hand, in small batches, with respect for nature’s wisdom and love. Sweet Bee Organics is born out of a life lived – a continuous cycle of learning, nurturing and creating.
