Dear Marina,
Congratulations! Mill Farm’s Organic Bee Venom has been selected as an Organic NZ Award finalist for Organic Non-food Product of the Year.
There are six Organic NZ Award categories this year. Three peer-reviewed awards (Organic Farmer, Leader and Brand of the Year) and three people’s choice awards (Organic Food, Beverage and Non-food Products of the Year).
The Organic Non-food Product of the Year category is a people’s choice award. You were nominated many times by the public and therefore have become one of three finalists based on the number of nominations received.
Mill Farm’s Organic Bee Venom is listed on the Organic Week website and voting is now open. The winner of the Organic NZ Non-food Product of the Year will be determined by the highest number of votes received. Feel free to run campaigns and create some buzz! Voting closes at 11:59 pm 15 August.
All winners will be announced at the Organic NZ Awards Celebration which will be held at Te Papa in Wellington on 10 September 2021 from 4:30 – 7:00 pm. We hope that you will be able to attend the ceremony!
A special thanks to this year’s lead sponsor of the awards and ceremony, and the Non-food awards category, OrganicNZ Magazine.
We hope that you will join us in Wellington for a fun and festive kick-start to Organic Week (11 – 19 Sept). There are many activities happening in addition to the Awards Celebration and we are happy to give you a free pass to all of them!
Thank you for contributing to the organic movement and congratulations!
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Pete Huggins
