Celebrate Australian Pollinator Week and build native bee hotels for your backyard!

Pollinators play a vital role in our ecosystems, providing essential ecological benefits. Unfortunately, many of these important species are in decline due to habitat loss and other environmental pressures.

Join us on Wednesday, 12 November at the Port Environment Centre for an inspiring evening of nature learning and hands-on fun as we build homes for native bees!

Here’s what’s happening:

4:00 – 5:00 pm | Natural Insect Art
5:00 – 6:00pm | Eco-Discussion: This month’s topics -

Article 1: My Mum’s Garden is a Bee Hotel

Article 2: Australian Pollinator Week: celebrating more than just the bees and birds

6:00 – 7:30pm | Nurturing Native Pollinators
Learn from expert Kristen Messenger from Bugs n Slugs about Australia’s native pollinators and how you can support them in your own backyard. Then roll up your sleeves to create bee bundles, cosy homes for native pollinators to thrive in.
