Being a fusion of both mellow and bolder flavours, it is an ideal honey to use as a table spread and in cooking as a classic addition to sweet and savoury dishes, glazes and marinades. the honey in the combs has not been touched in any way just removed from he hive and packaged , the liquid honey is filtered and bottled . you can pick which style you like and which type of honey the light honey has a mild taste and the dark bush is much stronger.
We believe in retaining all of the nutritional content in our honey by packing it in its natural, raw state - fresh from the hive. Because of this, the honey is liquid when freshly packed but the sugar crystals will eventually naturally granulate to create more of a firm, creamed honey consistency. To speed this process up you can make the honey granulate faster by storing the jar in the fridge. If you prefer your honey liquid, slowly warm it by standing the jar in a bowl of warm water and stir. Just be aware that heating your honey over 40 degrees celcius will result in it starting to lose some of its natural goodness, so warming it slowly and gently is key! To keep the honey liquid longer you can store it in the freezer to slow the granulation process.

Driveways can be extremely dangerous, and people need to do everything they can to ensure they keep themselves and others safe, especially where children are present.
Children move around quickly, and often won’t be seen as you are reversing down your driveway.
Always check your driveway before driving in or out, and make sure you know the whereabouts of any children.
Please use your reversing camera if your vehicle has one installed.
Alternatively, ensure all children not in the vehicle with you are accounted for.
If another adult is at the property, make them responsible for ensuring children are well clear of any moving vehicles.
If there are no other adults present, have a ‘safe spot’ for children to stand and wait for the vehicle to stop moving.
This should be somewhere in view of the driver.
Check your blind spots often, and if you can no longer see a child, stop your vehicle and move them somewhere safe before you continue driving.
If your driveway is close to the children’s play area, consider a fence or gates to separate the play area from the driveway.
You should also take the time to speak to your children about the dangers of moving vehicles and remind them that just because they can see the driver, doesn’t mean the driver can always see them.
Taking those extra few seconds to make sure our tamariki are in a safe space when you drive in and out of your driveway can help prevent so much heartache and trauma.
Remember they don’t understand the potential consequences.
This sturdy A-frame finished in Resene Kwila Timber Stain is the perfect support for climbing crops. It’s easy to move around for crop rotation and is a great way to make the most of your gardening space. Find out how to create your own with these easy step by step instructions.
