Parliamentary triangle is ideal
for bees because Canberra’s centre is relatively free from pollution and has a
good range of plants

It is a fact that Canberra has its
fair share of honey-tongued politicians but parliament is about to produce its
very own product.
Three beehives have been
installed in the grounds around Australia’s Parliament House in
Canberra to produce honey for sale in the shop and to give as gifts for
visiting dignitaries.
The project is the work of Cormac
Farrell, an environmental scientist with engineering company Aurecon, in
conjunction with the Australian National University’s Apiculture Society and
the Department of Parliamentary Services.
