Specialising in salt tolerant species, as well as offering a range of local rainforest plants. Plants that provide flowers, bushfoods, butterflies, birds, and specialty species are all available. We provide grasses, groundcovers, small shrubs, water plants and larger trees all at very competitive prices.
Our tubestock (50mm-75mm) and round pots (140mm – 300mm) are suited for backyard gardening, landscaping, revegetation, and commercial works, catering for both retail and wholesale clients. We offer contract growing at negotiated rates for large-scale projects.
COOLUM COMMUNITY NATIVE NURSERY has been established since 2005 to grow coastal native and salt tolerant plant species.
All seed and cuttings are collected by our volunteers and staff on the Sunshine Coast to guarantee local genetic characteristics. We guarantee the provenance of all species.
BOOKSHOP: We stock a select range of the best books for identifying local native plants, from the beachfront to rainforest to grasses to vines to Eucalypts and everything in between, and titles on landscaping with natives as well.
VOLUNTEERING: Our nursery fosters community interaction and togetherness via native plant seed collecting and propagation. The nursery family is over 50 strong and we share morning teas and lunches together at the nursery. We aim to carry out all our activities sustainably, by supporting "slow-foods", "certified organic", bicycling, recycling, reducing packaging, solar power and hot water, and waste-not want-not. All excess revenue goes into improving the facilities for volunteers and special groups like primary schools, traineeship teams, and other conservation groups.
GET INVOLVED: Volunteers play a crucial role in the nursery function and are encouraged to participate in all aspects of nursery operation on a regular basis. We offer training and a first class community nursery facility with shaded areas, tables and chairs, kitchenette, car parking and toilet facilities. If you would like to become a volunteer at the nursery please get in touch.
