Producer

A one-acre property functioning as a food forest and apiary of 5 hives currently, soon to get more. There are over a dozen fruit trees, as well as herbs, medicinal plants, and ornamentals.

The primary product of Wai Pepe is value-added honey in the form of infusions and medicinals.

As seasons allow, we will be including fresh produce, such as ulu, pineapple, sugar cane, jackfruit, noni, soursop and bananas.

There is also a small rabbitry, the development of which is still in progress.

Value--added honey products include infusions and medicinals (electuaries) using raw local honey direct from our on-premise apiary. Dried fruit, herbs and/or spices are slow-infused in sunlight for 4 to 6 weeks until optimal flavor is achieved, after which the honey is bottled and labeled for market. Fresh fruit or herbs are not used because these will ferment in honey, which is not allowed per Dept of Health Guidelines.

Electuaries consist of powdered herbs and spices, combined to achieve a medicinal effect to help support relief of various symptoms. We have electuaries to help support hormonal balance, help ease joint and muscle pain, may aid in sleep or stress relief, may help boost immunity and mood elevation, as well as seasonal support for cold and flu symptoms. Wai Pepe makes no claim to treat or cure any disease, illness or condition.

Most of the trees on the Wai Pepe property are still young and immature; however, once the seasons allow, we will be offering fresh produce, such as ulu, pineapple, sugar cane, jackfruit, noni, soursop and bananas.
