Active Jelly Bush honey
or Leptospermum honey has unique medicinal properties not found in other honeys and requires
different production and handling methods to maintain these potent
qualities.
Jellybush plants are
known to produce a honey that not only has hydrogen peroxide releasing enzymes but also a special
phytochemical property called the Unique Leptospermum Factor - ULF not found in other
honeys.
The Active
Jellybush Honey we sell comes from Leptospermum trees found growing in the pristine sub
tropical coastal forests surrounding Byron Bay on the East Coast of Australia.
Leptospermum trees have wide distribution, but like Manuka, its New Zealand
relative, the activity and strength varies with the locality in which it is found. The strongest and
most potent activity is found in North Eastern NSW.
Tyagarah Apiaries

the harvesting and production of Active Jelly Bush Honey, Australia’s Manuka.
Tyagarah Apiaries is located near Byron Bay in Northern New South Wales, and enjoys producing fine

They use cold extraction methods with minimal processing which helps to preserve the

All their bees are managed naturally by organic principles, without the use of sugar
feeding, veterinary pharmaceuticals or chemicals.
They specialize in harvesting different types of Jellybush Honey all of which
are tested at certified laboratories to guarantee that the active properties are present before
packaging.
The common name ‘tea tree’ is also given to another Australian group of
trees from the Melaleuca genus. It is from Melaleuca plants that the well known tea tree oil is
produced. This group of trees, the Malaleucas, have no relation to the Jellybush or Leptospermum
group of plants which produce the Active Jellybush Honey.
