    Why Our Raw Organic Manuka Honey Is the Best in the UK – Certified, Traceable & Truly Authentic

    The World’s Best Honey, Made with Purpose
    Introducing Wedderspoon’s Raw & Organic Manuka Honey – A Revolution in Purity, Care and Community

    We’re proud to introduce what we genuinely believe is the best honey in the worldWedderspoon’s Raw & Organic Manuka Honey, the first raw and organic Manuka honey available in the UK and Europe.

    But this isn’t just about honey. It’s about how we care for our bees, our land, and each other. When you buy from us, you’re supporting a small British family-run business, committed to local jobs, community wellbeing, and ethical sourcing.


    What Makes Our Honey Truly Organic?

    Organic isn’t just a label – it’s a way of life. To be certified organic, every plant, tree, valley, and hillside within a 5km radius of each hive must meet organic standards. No pesticides, no artificial sprays – just untouched, natural flora.

    Caring for the bees in this environment is no easy task. We use organic-friendly treatments to protect them from mites, which means checking in on our hives far more often than conventional keepers do. It takes more time and effort, but it’s worth it – because our bees are happier and healthier, and the honey they produce is extraordinary.


    Verified, Tested & Trusted

    Every jar of our honey is:

    • Raw and unpasteurised – nothing added, nothing taken away.

    • Independently tested in a certified New Zealand lab for purity and MGO strength (verified 400 mg/kg MGO).

    • Packed at source in New Zealand, to strict government standards.

    • FernMark Certified, proving its authenticity as a product of New Zealand.

    • Traceable from hive to home, so you can see exactly where your jar came from.

    • Organic Certified
    • Non-GMO Project Verified
    • Antibiotic & Glyphosate Free

    • A local team, hired from our own community, who care deeply about what they do.

    • An LGBTQ+ friendly workplace, rooted in values of kindness, inclusivity and integrity.

    • Our partnerships with local charities, including an inspiring bee rehoming initiative that’s helping protect pollinators in our area.


    Why Our Honey?

    So when you buy a jar of Wedderspoon’s Raw & Organic Manuka Honey, you’re not just choosing better honey – you’re choosing a better way of doing business.
