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.

If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....
In one word, how would you define 2024?
We're excited to see what you come up with!

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
