Bruce’s latest best read: ‘Anxious People’ by Fredrick Backman 🪴🌞

💭 In Bruce’s words…

“A surprisingly clever tale about a hapless, but loveable bank robber and a bunch of hostages. The back stories of all involved is the pot of gold in this book. Astonishing insight into human nature. Laugh out loud funny one moment and misty-eyed the next. Remarkable, wonderful book.”

If you’re after a good fiction read look no further, this book is epic - come grab a copy from us 🤗

SPOTTED! Some honeys holding honey! 😌🍯💗

Just your old favourites modelling our newest stock in!

This honey comes from beehives in the Christchurch Red Zone, Tai Tapu, Prebbleton and Yaldhurst. Very smooth and sweet tasting with a more complex flavour than clover honey reflecting the wide range of native and exotic flowers, trees and shrubs in these areas.

YUM! Come grab a jar - only $17.99 each 🐝🕺🏼
