About Board Game Designer Yari

Hi, I’m Yari. I’m a beekeeper from Mullumbimby, Australia, and I’ve been building this game since Christmas 2017.

I’m passionate about bees, and after years of showing kids at Main Arm Primary School how hives work and why bees are so important, I wanted to bring that same hands-on fun into a game.

I helped launch the Flow Hive in 2015 — the hexagon wooden offcuts inspired my first version of Forage.

After my first Kickstarter, I rebuilt the game from the ground up. In 2025, the second campaign raised AU$48,674 and funded production.
