During the Covid 19 global pandemic one of our rare visitors, a famous gardener came to visit our garden. They were super impressed by the quality of the advanced trees we were growing and jokingly said "you should be selling them!! I thought about this afterwards and out of interest one day and I listed 27 ornamental pears which I had been growing on to plant down my driveway on Facebook. They all sold within 3 days and i quickly realised that there was an opportunity there, to turn a passion and love of gardening into a business.
January 2022 - We spent planning and brainstorming how the business could work, what would be involved, the design of our holding yard, potting shed and sourcing of supplies.
February 2022 - We partnered with one of the largest wholesale plant growers in Australia to be our main supplier. We also submitted council planning permits and plans for our business.
March - May 2022 - We expect to spend building the tree holding yards and tree supports and finalising our custom made potting machine. All going well we will be lucky enough to be granted our planning permit from council to start selling as a plant nursery.
June- August 2022 - We expect to spend potting bare root trees and other plants as they arrive from our supplier - getting them ready for sale.
Late - 2022 - Fingers crossed will go live - with online plant and tree sales directly to the public at wholesale prices! - STAY TUNED !!!!
