Plan was to begin honey harvest next week, and harvest has to be finished by 12th March, the latest date my extractor guys will accept honey for extracting. But with the floods a lot of my sites are not accessible due to slips and mud however if the rain stops maybe they will dry out in time.

Possibly bigger problem is tracks that are yellow stickered. The tracks are still there but are yellow stickered (you can't drive on them) because they are in danger of sliding down the hill. All up probably 1/2 my sites are not accessible.


So the question, can I get an exemption for yellow stickered tracks?


Good news, all my hives are OK, no losses at all. One close shave, just before Christmas I moved an apiary to a different place on the same property. The place where they were no longer exists, it's a pile of mud and debris in the valley below.


What type of honey is New Zealand famous for?
