New Seed Lines
Greenpatch Seeds, an Australian owned, family run business since 1993 supplying excellent quality heirloom seeds and nursery plants. Our focus is on providing a broad range of seeds and plants with a strong emphasis on locally produced lines from our two farms near Taree in NSW.
From the beginning Greenpatch made a unique approach by producing the seeds and plants sold rather then buying them in. This holds strong even today with a huge portion of our range grown on our two properties in the Manning Valley. We are dedicated to organic principals in all aspects of our farms and make them as sustainable as we possibly can.
Neville and Sophia started Greenpatch with a forward thinking vision and they well and truly achieved their goals with a strong following from loyal customers over 30 years. Their son Stami took a strong interest in seed saving and has been working at Greenpatch since 2010. As of July 2023 Stami has taken on Greenpatch as the owner with a continued vision of Australian grown heirloom seeds being the forefront of the business.
Our current farm/shop is nestled on the Mid North Coast where we currently grow 230 varieties of seeds and propagate 150 varieties of plants on site under certified organic practices.
Our second farm is in early stages on developments with roughly 40 varieties of seeds produced there with more of a focus towards larger crops for bulk harvest. This property is currently 'in conversion to organic certification'.
We are proud to say at Greenpatch we grow:
- 250 varieties of organic seeds
- 200 varieties of plants in our certified organic nursery
The vast majority of our seeds are grown onsite at Greenpatch, yet a handful of seed growers throughout Australia also support us by producing seeds using organic principals and methods.
Many seed companies just buy their seeds from overseas and rarely produce any varieties themselves.
Here at Greenpatch we pride ourselves in supporting Australian growers and producing as many varieties ourselves as possible! In some cases imported seed is used when no other option is available to ensure seed availability in our extensive range of vegetables, herbs, flowers and grains.
If you are traveling up the mid north coast please stop in and have a stretch!
We are only 900m from the Pacific Hwy. Our extensive gardens, nursery, shop and growing areas available during opening hours.
Open Monday – Friday, 8.30am - 4.30pm.
