Our Treasured Gift
Ngati Porou Mānuka was established to share our unique gift with the world. Utilising our natural remoteness and beauty to produce premium Mānuka Honey from the same land and forests that have sustained our people for generations. Large stands of wild Mānuka grow naturally across our land, this is supplemented with eco-sourced Mānuka transplants grown at our nursery to ensure long term access to high quality Mānuka.
Pristine Locations
Our Land

into the heart of our region, providing an opportunity for our people and a product we are proud to share with the world.
