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 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!
-
24.6% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.9% ... It is complicated

Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
