This week I am joined by Dr Amelie Vanderstock (AKA Amelie Ecology) and get to share two of her amazzz-ing new songs from her debut album, ‘Let’s Bee Scientists’.
Amelie is a pollinator ecologist, musician and permaculture educator from the Blue Mountains, Australia on Dharug and Gundungurra country.
She creates songs inspired by the wonders of native bees and the natural world and invites science lovers young and old to be curious and sow seeds of change.
Amelie has performed in schools and festivals across Australia, Europe and Japan including Woodford Folk Festival and Green Gathering (UK).
As an ecologist, Amelie researches the role of community gardens and urban greenspaces for promoting pollinating insect biodiversity. She also designs educational programs that connect youth with local ecology, inviting them to be co-creators of ecological research. Amelie is just releasing her debut studio album and educational resource kit ‘Let’s BEE Scientists’, – it went live on World Environment Day, 2024.
This is a special episode as part of the International Permaculture Festival of Ideas.
