'Trees and Bees' with Ian Cane-Guest Speaker

Ian Cane is a 3rd generation Beekeeper (retired now), with over 50 years’ experience in the Beekeeping Industry.

Ian’s fascination with the forest and the environment started from a young age as he spent his youth beekeeping with his father and grandfather.

He would listen to his grandfather’s observations about the Murray/Darling ecosystem and the Box/Ironbark forests in the 1960’s.

This shaped his thoughts about the environment and the use of public assets which has spurred a lifelong passion advocating for the management of public assets so that all values and uses are recognised in perpetuity.
Ian is a passionate advocate for the Apiculture Industry and food security through improved management systems of public land and has represented the industry on many occasions.

Healthy forests = healthy bees = healthy people!
