How Do I Make a Bee Hotel Tutorial

There are over 2000 species of native bees in Australia that play a vital role in pollinating plants, including the crops we eat. Sadly, bee populations are under threat from land clearing, pesticide use and the impacts of climate change.   But we can help our native bees by providing essential habitat in our gardens by the way of bee hotels.

I would love to bring to light the awesome meaning behind Wurundjeri, who are the First Nations carer of country that I live on in Narrm. The first part of the word - ‘wurun’ means the Manna Gum (Eucalyptus viminalis) which is common along ‘Birrarung’ (Yarra River) and the second part of the word ‘djeri‘ is the grub which is found in or near the Wurun tree. Wurundjeri are the ‘Witchetty Grub People’ of the Kulin Nation. I would also like to pay my deepest respects to the Yolŋu Peoples of East Arnhem Land, NT where I do my research on native stingless bees and the Bangerang Peoples of the tall trees from Yorta Yorta country where I grew up in country Vic.
