The book ‘Nature-friendly Gardening on Bonaire’ (in DUTCH) is an adaptation of a report originally created for vocational (MBO) students, now transformed into a free digital book. Although written for gardeners on Bonaire, the author notes that the book is also well-suited for use on Curaçao and Aruba. All copyrights remain with the author. Through its free publication on Caribbean Footprint, this information is now accessible to a wider audience.

This is the first article on this series telling the story of the introduction of honeybees on the ABCSSS0islands.
