Kanuka Honey - The Lesser-Known Cousin to Manuka

Christopher from Massey

Don Buck Honey has plenty of Kanuka honey in stock. Kanuka is a tree that closely resembles the Manuka shrub. From its nectar honeybees produce a honey that is very thick like Manuka honey but with a distinctively different taste and health effects. Kanuka honey tastes rather earthy and is much less sweet than most honeys.

Kanuka honey has a green tint to it when seen in the honey frame (see picture!), but this disappears when the honey is extracted and potted.

Two Kanuka honey batches available:
• Waitakere Ranges Kanuka blend 500g. $12
• Far North Kanuka-Manuka blend (40+ mgo). $14

Potted honey is sold at a discount of 4+ pots, and these Kanuka honey pots are available in some of the combo packs sold by Don Buck Honey.

Pickups available, from Massey by prior arrangement or orders can be couriered to you.

Get in touch or order online at www.donbuckhoney.co.nz...

Price: $12

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
