If you're looking for Manuka honey, why not try out this combo set?

Three different Manuka batches of varying grades. Honey is made by bees foraging from nectar-producing flowers and differing blends are created by the bees finding nectar from different flowers depending on the season, time of season, and location of foraging.

Two from the Far North and one from our very own Waitakere Ranges. Combo deal comes with one each of the following:

- 500g Waitakere Ranges Manuka-Rewarewa Honey 84+ MGO

- 370g Far North Manuka Blend 65 MGO

- 250g Far North Monofloral Manuka Honey 300 MGO

Individually these would add up to $62 but I sell all three as a bundle for $50.


These honey batches are either from my own or a family members' hives. All honey batches are extracted and potted in a registered facility and tested at Analytica labs in Hamilton. Raw and unpasteurized.



Discount: Four Manuka Trio packs for $180. Make your order through my online store. You can select to have it couriered or to pick up from Massey, and to pay by cash/credit-card/bank-transfer.

Don Buck Honey: 5.5kg Honey Buckets - $60

Christopher from Massey

A lot of people buy honey from me to replace their use of processed sugar - if this sounds like you, my honey buckets might be your thing.

A lot of people buy honey from me to replace their use of processed sugar - if this sounds like you, my honey buckets might be your thing.

This is Towai honey - a lighter coloured honey with a mild taste and is at the sweeter end of the range of honeys I have to sell.

The current batch in buckets is from the Waipoua forest in Northland – the forest where the giant Kauri tree known as Tāne Mahuta is located. These hives aren't my own, they're my in-law's hives and I do some honey-hustling for them alongside my own honey!

Great for hot drinks or doing lots of cooking or baking that requires plenty of honey.

These are 5.5kg and I sell them for $60. I also have 500g pots - $10 each, less if you buy a bunch of pots at once.

I can ship TWO (and only two) 5.5kg buckets as one package.

Courier is $7 within Auckland, otherwise pickup is from Massey.

Kia ora neighbours, a Parakai toddler who loves to dance may soon be unable to walk or stand if medicine for her rare condition stays unfunded.

Two-year-old Zoey Butcher was diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy type 3 (SMA) in March and her mum, Chauntel Wedlake, said the treatments available were unfunded in Aotearoa and cost more than $400,000 a year.

Without the treatment, Wedlake said, Zoey would be “devastated” as she would no longer be able to dance.
