Just before Christmas the Pohutukawa trees flower, we wanted to get honey made from the Pohutukawa nectar, so as the trees started to flower we took all te honey stored by the bees and extracted it. Then we put those empty frames back on the hives so they could get on with making Pohutukawa honey.

We don’t know how it will go, we hope they have been busy on the trees, we will have to watch the weather now because we will need to get the honey off the hives before there is any bad weather.
