Silver-Award Winning Waitakere Ranges Honey - 2kg Buckets
This is my award-winning Waitakere Ranges Forest blend honey. It won a silver award at the 2022 Apiculture NZ Honey awards. It has a range of nectar types in it but according to a pollen test it has lots of Tawherowhero and Acacia in it - a rather surprising mix (the previous season's batch had lots of Manuka and Rewarewa in it).
I've put a limited amount into 2kg buckets and am selling them through my online store for $35. (500g pots are also sold $13).
The award winning honey is also part of a 4-pack for $40, and a variety box of 12x pots for $100.
This honey is from last summer and is from a collection of bee hive sites in West Auckland's very own Waitakere Ranges.
Order through my online store - you can opt to pick it up (from Massey/Henderson North) or have it couriered, and pay by cash, bank transfer, or credit card.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
39.7% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
58.5% No, I enjoy it
-
1.8% Other - I'll share below
