LOCAL MANUKA HONEY FROM THE WAITAKERE RANGES
If you're after locally foraged Manuka Honey, let me suggest this 200mgo batch made by my beehives in the Waitakere Ranges.
These 500g pots are $40 each and can be included in the mix&match discounts my online store does automatically as you add potted honey to the shopping cart (e.g. 10% off for 4-5 pots, 15% for 6+, 25% for 12+).
This is a delicious blend of Manuka and Rewarewa honey from the forested north-eastern slopes of west Auckland’s Waitakere Ranges. Early season honey from the spring of 2020, this has a Manuka rating of 200 MGO. The caramel-like flavor of the Rewarewa nectar is a smooth complement that blunts the sharper Manuka taste in this honey. Delicious local honey for West Aucklanders.
Raw and unpasteurised. This honey has set solid but can be softened again by heating it gently.
Pickup is from Massey, or these can be couriered to you with Post Haste.

Smoke in Mt Wellington
Smoke has been seen coming from the crater of the Auckland maunga Mt Wellington.
Images of the smoke began appearing on social media on Friday afternoon.
Around 1.45pm, Fire and Emergency (Fenz) shift manager Josh Pennefather told the NZ Herald a crew was fighting a fire of about 60 square metres in size.
”It’s spreading up hill … [but] there’s no property at risk at this stage,” Pennefather said.
Six fire trucks were in attendance working to contain a grass fire that's spreading up the maunga.
A helicopter was on its way to assist firefighting efforts, he added.
At 2pm, Pennefather shared that the fire was contained and they were working to extinguish it, including “keeping an eye on a whole bunch of hot spots“.
