Beeswax Wrap Workshop

Your beeswax wrap is a reusable replacement for plastic cling wrap. It’s great for wrapping sandwiches, cheese, fresh fruit and vegetables and for covering bowls.

Using the heat from your hands, mould the wrap around bowls and fold or wrap it around foods. You can even roll the edges to make it into a pouch. It’s a handy little thing!

Your wrap is made from beeswax, pine rosin, jojoba oil and cotton fabric.

Care Instructions:

Wipe with a warm soapy sponge andlet it dry after each use. Please don’t microwave or put your wrap on hot surfaces.

Native Bee Hotel Workshop

Your native bee hotel is a cosy little place that encourages Australian native bees to nest in the little nooks and crannies. As backyards get smaller, and trees become fewer, it’s important to provide shelter for our native bees so they can continue their important work of pollination.

Instructions:

Place in a sunny to semi-shaded position that is sheltered, above 1 metre off the ground, but no higher than 2 metres.

Earth Crusader Me Seed Sticks

Alyssum flowers

The only super powers needed for these flowers to grow are sun, soil and water. Plant your seed stick in the ground or in a pot to encourage native bees and insects into your garden. Plant the stick in potting mix or soil so the seeds are 3mm deep. Keep the potting mix moist in well drained soil while growing. Oh, not to mention Alyssum like being in a sunny spot! The seeds will start to grow in 10-14 days andwill flower in 8 weeks from sowing.

The Hungry Lady Bug Home

Ladybugs love to eat pests like aphids and mites, so having a home for them in your garden helps keep plants happy and healthy.

Instructions:

Keep your ladybug home as close to a garden as possible, so you have a better chance of attracting ladybugs to it. They will stop by as they fly to and from the garden. Don’t forget to replace the sweet little raisin in the bamboo every now and then. It helps attract the lady bugs!
