From ELC to Year 12, our students cultivate native plants at our Currency Creek EcoCentre. By making a purchase for a small fee, you can support their hard work, while also growing some beautiful native species in your garden or community.
All native plant sales funds go back into projects to educate students about the environment and conservation.
Native plants for sale
Our range includes ground covers; native grasses; small, medium and large shrubs; and trees for gardens, wind breaks and revegetation. Plants are mostly grown from local seed and include bush foods and fire-resistant plants.
A list of available species is available at this link: Investigator College Plant List – December 2024
This link is updated periodically. Due to demand, time of year, and school holidays, availability varies and is not guaranteed.
