Happy New Year to all our Locals!
Have you resolved to be mindful of your eating habits this year?
An excellent way to enjoy guilt-free sugar is to use raw honey as a sweetener.
Raw Honey comes straight from the honeycomb. It has been strained only enough to remove small bits of debris (pollen lumps, beeswax and bee bits!) but still contains plenty of pollen, propolis and anti-oxidants with all the nutrients and goodies that the bees put into it.
Processed honey is clearer than raw honey and doesn't crystallise. Raw honey can crystallise over time but you can easily fix that by warming your honey jar in water (not too hot) until the crystals melt. Some people actually prefer the crystally texture.
Bring your jar into Hive World at 16 Wall Place,, Kenepuru to fill with your choice of honey.
Taste before you buy - 5 varieties to choose from.

Some Choice News!
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!
Be prepared for upcoming roadworks
SH1 Transmission Gully works until mid-February, weather permitting.
There’s no roadworks for the holiday break from Friday 19 December, and all lanes will be fully open. Contractors are back to work on Monday 5 January, at night. Plan ahead for lane closures, night-time road closures and speed restrictions until mid-February. When the highway is closed, detours are via State Highway 59 and State Highway 58.
Chip-seal works begin in early January, so drivers must do 30km/h to prevent flying chip that can damage vehicles.
