Want to try honey from Avocado trees?
No, this honey does not taste like Avocado! Honeybees make honey from nectar produced by flowers, which later turn into fruit (if it is a fruiting plant!). This honey comes from a large avocado orchard near Kaikohe in Northland and from Manuka scrub that was flowering on the nearby hills. My father-in-law was doing pollination work with his hives there and I managed to get this set aside for a special batch.
MGO 60+ Manuka. 500g pots. $16 for a pot, less if you buy 4+ pots. The honey is still runny but will thicken in time.
Also available in a Far North Six pot variety pack ($70), and in 2kg minibuckets ($45).
Honey can be couriered to you with Post Haste or picked up from me in Massey. Order through my business website: www.donbuckhoney.co.nz...
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
