New Season Honey: Waitakere Forest Blend 500g [3x for $30]
New season honey from December 2022! This was harvested from a collection of apiaries in the Waitakere Ranges of West Auckland. The honey is rich in flavor and runny and smooth in texture – delicious! A pollen analysis is due back from the laboratory in mid-February to give some indication on what this honey came from – watch this space!
Similar tasting to my previous season’s silver-award winning batch.
500g pots.
February only special: 3x pots for $30
Also comes in the Summer Harvest Four pack ($40) and the Twelve Pot Mixed Box ($100).
Orders can be made at www.DonBuckHoney.co.nz... and collected from my home in Massey or couriered to you using Post Haste.
