SWEET NATURE PLANTING PROJECT
Sweet Nature is a project designed to contribute to and help nurture a healthy, creative, social, liveable and environmentally sustainable city.
By creating a beneficial native garden on a once barren nature strip, the Sweet Nature project contributes by bringing beauty and providing an inspiring, creative and educational space that engages local community and visitors and provides a beneficial place for local birds, bees and butterflies.
Sweet Nature contributes to a valuable natural stepping stone between existing wildlife corridors, as well as providing ecological and health benefits and visually enhancing the urban landscape.
Sweet Nature is designed to create a place of visual and beneficial beauty that will not only improve the aesthetic outlook of the surrounding streets, but provide habitat for native fauna, create opportunities for related educational and interactive community activities, while adding to the creation of a thriving green spine in Bondi Junction.
In 2016 the Superlocalstudio Sweet Nature project became a part of the Habitat Stepping Stones program, which contributes a valuable natural stepping stone between existing wildlife corridors, providing a beneficial native garden to local birds, bees and butterflies as well as providing ecological and health benefits, and visually enhancing the urban landscape.
The intersection of Ebley and Lawson Streets is a particularly busy area with a constant stream of people walking and driving past day and night. There is huge potential to expand the project. and create a beautiful streetscape that is also beneficial in many ways including improving air quality, restoring indigenous native vegetation, providing bird habitat, food and materials, increasing biodiversity and providing sustenance for local insects including local bees who are important pollinators and work to produce many of the local honeys.
The Sweet Nature project contributes to the sustainability and carbon neutral objectives of Superlocalstudio.
