We take utmost care to extract our honey with minimal heat to preserve the natural properties of the honey. Our honey is real and raw meaning it is not pasteurised or ultra-fine filtered.  We also do not add anything extra to our honey – it is the real raw deal.

Our bees forage predominantly in the remote natural bush of the Marlborough Sounds. We only shift some of our beehives in the winter for easier access. During the summer season are placed in permanent locations, which is gentler on the bees.

Our main varieties are Wildflower, Kanuka and Manuka honey and native bush crops. Our Wildflower variety is from more urban areas in Marlborough.

The honey varieties very much depend on the area, weather conditions and also on the flowering season.

Once the honey is harvested it is processed in our modern extraction plant, homogenized and then tested by an accredited laboratory to ensure it meets all New Zealand food safety requirements set out by the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI).

We sell in bulk and reserve a small amount for our own Sherrington Honey brand.
