Award Winning Kanuka Honey
WE WON BRONZE!!
This is our Creamed Kanuka Honey from the Far North. It was entered in the 2021 Apiculture NZ Honey contest and won third place in the ‘Creamed Honey’ class for medium-colour entries.
I can’t take much of the credit for this as it isn’t my own honey – it was produced by my wife’s dad’s bees. I didn’t even pot this batch – I paid my sister-in-law to do that for me. All I did was slap my Don Buck Honey sticker on it for marketing. And send in a pot to the honey contest!
This Kanuka honey has a super-smooth texture and a distinctive flavour that is less sweet and more earthy than most honey types.
If you would like to try award-winning honey these are going for $13 each, or three for $30 until the end of August. 500g pots. Nationwide courier $4 (non-RD).

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
80.6% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
19.4% No. This would be impossible in practice.
