Creating A Bee Friendly Garden:
In today's episode, Bonnie shares the importance of creating a safe haven for our friendly garden pollinators. Australia has over 1700 native bee species that are in quick decline due to the lack of good organic practices and the lack of habitats. By creating pollinator-friendly areas in our garden or growing a variety of flowers we can help save the bees.
