C'MON THE BEES!

Would you like to have more bees in your paddock or garden?

Providing optimum pollen and nectar sources not only safeguards the survival of vital pollinators but helps maintain our food security too! Now you can encourage bees to your patch with all the tips and tools provided in a handy new guide. The Wheen Bee Foundation have produced new area-specific guides, “Powerful Pollinators” that give relevant information about pollinator habitat and floral resources.

The guide is designed to enable users to select the most appropriate native plant species that will increase the prevalence, health, and diversity of pollinators in the landscape Powerful Pollinators encourages the strategic planting of ‘trees for bees’ and other pollinators and provides Pollinator Planting Guides developed by experienced botanists and field ecologists for use by landholders.
