We started operations in November 2023 with seed funding from Australian Government's Future Drought Fund Community Impact Program, administered by FRRR. We focus on growing community through plants, mostly local natives and organically grown vegetable and herb seedlings, helping to fulfill the NSLA Vision of Healthy Landscapes, Healthy Food, Healthy People.

Volunteers meet on Tuesdays (8-11am in summer, 9-12noon in winter) for a variety of plant propagation activities, laughter and the odd cuppa. No time commitment is necessary and we can cater to almost all abilities. We sell plants at the nursery on Tuesday mornings and at the Bingara Lion's Markets on the 4th Saturday of the month. Our pricing is very competitive, our main aim being plants in the ground.
