With the 75+ population projected to double in 20 years’ time, it’s more important than ever to choose a retirement village that is equipped to support you when you’re fully independent as well as if you need care.

That’s why Ryman villages plan ahead by offering independent living in apartments and townhouses, assisted living in serviced apartments, resthome care and, in most villages, hospital and specialist dementia care.

We offer a higher ratio of care in our villages so that if your needs change, you have priority access to our care centres.

If you're looking for Manuka honey, why not try out this combo set?

Three different Manuka batches of varying grades. Honey is made by bees foraging from nectar-producing flowers and differing blends are created by the bees finding nectar from different flowers depending on the season, time of season, and location of foraging.

Two from the Far North and one from our very own Waitakere Ranges. Combo deal comes with one each of the following:

- 500g Waitakere Ranges Manuka-Rewarewa Honey 84+ MGO

- 370g Far North Manuka Blend 65 MGO

- 250g Far North Monofloral Manuka Honey 300 MGO

Individually these would add up to $62 but I sell all three as a bundle for $50.


These honey batches are either from my own or a family members' hives. All honey batches are extracted and potted in a registered facility and tested at Analytica labs in Hamilton. Raw and unpasteurized.



Discount: Four Manuka Trio packs for $180. Make your order through my online store. You can select to have it couriered or to pick up from Massey, and to pay by cash/credit-card/bank-transfer.

Price: $50
