Every now and again, a working bee just has to take a break. Pictured at the Big Buzz Festival is Matakana School student, Hunter Murray.
Organisers of what was believed to be New Zealand’s first honey and bee festival could not have got their timing more perfect last month.
The Big Buzz was held at the Matakana School on Sunday, February 14 and wrapped up just hours before torrential rain hit the district and the announcement of the level 3 lockdown.
