131. Interview with "Bee Man" Clancy Lester


Listen Later

This week we had the pleasure of speaking with Clancy Lester aka "Bee Man" - a nature lover and founder of Bees and Blossoms.

Through growing up on Yorta Yorta Country in regional Victoria, Clancy developed an early fascination with the natural world that later evolved into community-focused biodiversity education through social media and hands-on workshops.

His work empowers young people and communities to engage with local biodiversity, and learn about indigenous knowledge, especially through watching his '7Seasons' documentary.
