Winnie the Pooh loves honey. Mr Blackwell loves honey. Any extension of the comparison would result in a brief but entertaining set of internet memes, followed by several terminations of employment.

But imagine Mr Blackwell's delight at discovering a family business producing the very highest quality Mānuka, Kānuka, Wildflower, Kamahi, Native and Clover honey, straight from the land, in South Wairarapa!

Kānuka Honey is Greytown Honey's newest addition to the family and very quickly becoming a firm favourite.

Fun facts about Kānuka - just because we all love being experts on where our food comes from... In New Zealand the Kānuka (kunzea) species holds a 'nationally vulnerable' conservation status, which means that, as with all our national native plants, it's our job to look after it. The Kānuka is often confused with the Mānuka, but there are a few ways to tell the difference. The Kānuka tree grows up to 30m tall while the Mānuka grows up to 10m. Their flowers are very different - a Kanuka tree grows clusters of round-edged flowers 4-8mm whereas the Mānuka bush has flowers that are spikey and up to 12mm.

Greytown Honey's Kānuka Honey is beautifully packaged in 350g sustainable glass jars and presented to a high standard.
