Franz Poxhofer: Excellent honey from Grein conquers Wieselburg
In the picturesque Grein, beekeeper Franz Poxhofer has received an outstanding award that puts him and his products in the spotlight. At the organic Austria festival days in Wieselburg, he was awarded the coveted “Golden honeycomb 2024” last Friday. This award not only appreciates Austria's best honey products, it should also promote awareness of the quality and diversity of domestic products. With this honor, Grein is proud to bring a golden honeycomb home.
The pensioner, who has been in the beekeeping since 1991, manages between 30 and 40 honey sticks at various locations. His joy over winning the gold medal for his cream honey is unmistakable. In addition, his flower forest honey was awarded gold, its blossom honey with silver and his forest honey with bronze. Poxhofer emphasizes that his motivation for beekeeping is in "work in and with nature".

The award ceremony has set itself the goal of supporting the marketing of domestic products. The feedback from the specialist jury is intended to provide suggestions to further develop the products and increase their quality. Beekeeping plays an important role in agriculture and also offers numerous health benefits from eating honey. Poxhofer sells its award -winning products in front of its sales stand on Angerweg 15 and in the Katzengruber bakery in Nöchling. He is also represented at the Christmas market on the Binderalm in Grein, which will take place on November 30th and December 1st.
The success of Poxhofer shows how important it is to work for local products. The award of the "Golden Honey Wabe" 2024 is a sign of excellence and the commitment of the native beekeepers and will certainly focus more on the Strudengau region.
