Supporting biodiversity through beekeeping at Highway 104
Dexter Nova Alliance General Partnership partnered with Cornect Farms to introduce a managed beekeeping programme at the Sutherlands River depot of the Highway 104 project. The initiative promotes biodiversity and land stewardship while supporting local agriculture.
Approach
- Cornect Farms identified the depot as a suitable hive location following a site visit.
- Approximately 60–70 beehives were installed and are actively managed by the partner farm.
- The initiative makes productive use of otherwise underutilised roadside land.
Impact
- Pollinator support: Enhances biodiversity and supports local ecosystems vital to agriculture.
- Land optimisation: Demonstrates environmental value creation on PPP-managed land.
- Community partnership: Strengthens regional ties through collaboration with a local family-run business
