KYNETON resident, and founder and CEO of Sweet Justice, Claire Moore, has received the inaugural Rotary Melbourne Environmental Sustainability Award in recognition of her work to support and protect the honey bee population.
“Our bees and the people who look after them play such an important role in our environment. I am really thankful to Rotary Melbourne for supporting my work to train a new generation of beekeepers working to support agriculture and biodiversity,” she said.
The Environmental Sustainability Award comes with a cash prize which Ms Moore is planning to invest into her newly-established Bendigo-based social enterprise, Sweet Justice. Sweet Justice teaches commercial beekeeping skills within the Victorian justice system and provides post-release employment opportunities to trainees.
Sweet Justice currently operates programs in the Malmsbury, Parkville and Beechworth facilities.
Ms Moore is a farmer and qualified beekeeper and was the AgriFutures 2019 Victorian Rural Woman of the Year.
