FROM BUSBY TO BUZZY BEE
making history runs in cate and mike's family
Our great grandfather, James Busby, etched his name into New Zealand's history as mediator in the signing of our nations founding document - the Treaty of Waitangi. What the history book's don't talk about, is the passion for East Coast farming he passed down through the generations.
Pauariki Station has now been in our family for seven generations, and is where we (Mike, Cate and our four children) now base our business Pauariki Honey.
As proud East Coast locals it was a natural progression for our family to end up creating honey that celebrates our special, untouched region. The business has steadily grown, with hives all over our farm, Gisborne and the East Coast, and our passion has grown with it.
From Busby to Buzzy Bee, we have a past rich in history, and a future as sweet as honey.
