A huge manuka blaze in Ōpōtiki is under control after crews from across the Bay of Plenty battled it for more than five hours.
Crews got the call to the fire on Factory Rd about 12.41am, a Fire and Emergency NZ spokeswoman said.
On arrival, they found four acres of Manuka cuttings on fire.
The fire was believed to be at the Manuka Oil business.
Crews from Ōpōtiki, Ohope, Taneatua Greerton, Whakatāne, Edgecumbe, Kawerau, Tauranga, and Rotorua were at the scene.
