Mission

Following the path of Honeybee songlines

We acknowledge indigenous honeybee wisdom and the traditional knowledge of honey hunters.

Our mission is to establish a Bee Sanctuary. A place of learning, protection and cultivation.

Our vision is a skilled community of Guardians in service to bees and plant pollination.
