How Te Puke Honey House operates
Te Puke Honey House is one of the larger Bay of Plenty operations, still family-owned and running across mānuka, rewarewa and pasture sites. A significant part of their work is pollination contracting in the local kiwifruit orchards each spring — the pollination work pays the bills, the honey is the love. Strong UMF 5+ and 10+ mānuka programme, and a popular rewarewa.
