We love that we can share our organic honey with you
You choose to enjoy organic fruit and vegetables, so why not organic honey?
In caring for our bees we also care for our land. And we’re sure you’ll agree that our land deserves to be cared for. We know you’d be here if you could, but not everyone is as lucky as us to live in a pristine, unspoiled corner of New Zealand
If you choose honey from bees that live in a city or near an industrial area everything the bee or flowers come into contact with may be contaminated with pollution.
Our honey bees dine on pollen from the best native New Zealand bush including Manuka, White Clover, Kanuka, NZ Bush, Rata and Kamahi. We spend time making sure they’ve got the best that nature intended so that you can enjoy our products, knowing that they’re certified organic, produced sustainably and simply healthy, great tasting honey.

BioGro™ certified
This means that you can trust us, knowing when we say our honey is ‘organic’, then it is.
Products simply labeled ‘Natural or Organic’ come with no guarantees unless they are certified by an independent body. Some producers can misleadingly market their products as ‘organic’ or ‘natural’. That’s why we’ve chosen to certify our products through BioGro New Zealand. Certified Organic is the most heavily regulated ingredient system in the world and guarantees products and the ingredients we use are genuinely organic and produced to the highest feasible sustainability practices. Everything from the beehives to the production facilities to the packaging materials must be reviewed, approved and audited by BioGro New Zealand. By having our products independently reviewed and accredited to this standard, our customers can trust that our products are what they claim to be.
BioGro™ is New Zealand’s largest and best-known certifier for organic products, accrediting over 750 products throughout New Zealand and the Pacific.
Not only does this certification mean that your honey has no traces of sprays or synthetic chemicals, but it also means that your honey can be traced back to our individual hives that are scattered throughout the Canterbury high country and remote West Coast of south island New Zealand.
In 2023 we’ve had our BioGro™ certification for 30 years. So we’re not jumping on the organic bandwagon. In fact we’ve always been organic – for 113 years. We’d love to share our story with you, and you’ll see why our certification is so important to us.
