A Unique Ecosystem

The Mistake Mountains Range in Queensland is home to diverse native flora that depends on pollinator networks for survival. From eucalyptus forests to wildflower meadows, this region represents a critical biodiversity corridor that we're working to restore and protect.

Why not play our Plant Trumps game to discover some of the plants and trees which call the Mistake Mountains Range home.

Native Plants & Honey Bees Working Together

While native bees are crucial specialists, European honey bees play a supporting role in pollinating many native Australian plants. Our sanctuary creates a balanced ecosystem where rescued hives contribute to the broader regeneration of native plant communities.

• Eucalyptus varieties that feed native birds and insects
• Wildflower species that support year-round pollination
• Understory plants creating layered habitat zones
• Corridor plantings connecting fragmented ecosystems

How Honey Bees Support Regeneration

Our rescued hives don't just make honey—they're active participants in landscape restoration. By establishing pollination corridors and supporting flowering cycles, our bees help:

• Increase seed production in native wildflowers
• Support fruit set in regenerating forests
• Create food sources for native wildlife
• Build resilient, biodiverse ecosystems
