Get planting for bees – native plants for $1 each

Published on 17 May 2022

To celebrate World Bee Day on Friday 20 May, Council have collaborated with local nurseries who are offering native plants for $1 each.

Milton Rural Landcare Nursery and Berry Public School Plant Propagation Nursery are holding a reduced cost promotion to help residents create a bee friendly garden. Plant some natives to support bees and local biodiversity.

Milton Rural Landcare Nursery, 14 Deering St, Ulladulla will open for World Bee Day Friday 20 May from 10am – 12pm. Up to 10 Native plants for $1 each per customer (normal cost $2.50 thereafter).

Bees provide many valuable ecosystem services including pollinating food crops and forests and, of course providing delicious honey.

Take advantage of this great offer, pop to one of the above mentioned nurseries to choose bee attracting plants and encourage pollination by native bees and honeybees in your garden. 

A big thank you to the volunteer led nurseries for running this generous promotion.
