Mabuka honey in IOW

 A friend tells me that she heard on the Today programme that they are
now producing manuka honey on the Isle of Wight.
Can anyone (Mike?) expand on this?

Pam in Bristol

 


Pam, is that Manuka or Mabuka?

I will see what I can find out

Pam I have been onto our local newspaper, the Isle of Wight County Press
http://www.iwcp.co.uk/  and they are going to look into it and report back.
No doubt they are going to contact the local Bee Keeping Association.

Failing that, if we don't get any response before next Tuesday, I have an
interview on Isle of Wight Radio about how we have saved Shanklin Theatre
http://www.shanklintheatre.com/default.aspx   from possible demolition. I
will 'try' to get something in there.

Must go, I have arranged a live question on Vectis Radio in 3 minutes. Tune
in.

Been in Vectis Radio and someone in the studio seems to think it is
available in Health Food Shops, but they are going to look and report back,
and who knows, there may be a listener who knows :-))

The programme I broadcast on finishes in a minute, so we may have to wait
until tomorrow.

Will let you know

Even if nothing comes from there, the County Press are on the trail :-))
