The Magic of Manuka
On 19 Nov we welcome Assoc Prof Mike Clearwater from the University of Waikato who will tell us about Manuka: The plant behind the honey.
From reviled weed to treasured medicinal plant, our view of mānuka has always depended on its role in our lives. For many that view has been transformed by the discovery of the properties of its unusual honey. As the mānuka honey industry continues to expand rapidly, millions of seedlings are being planted, and landowners, bee keepers and exporters are competing fiercely for access to a limited resource.
