Message from our Greenlink Seed Team.

Although seed collecting season is still 2-3 months away, some members of the seed team were out in the eastern suburbs yesterday, checking on the health of several species we have on our priority list for this year, as well as other plants that we grow (but truthfully....who doesn't love getting out into bushland areas to look at plants for any reason!!

It was raining and freezing, but we made note of the plants we needed to find, and have earmarked a return visit in spring to check on them again.

National Volunteer Week 18-24 May 2026

A big shout-out to all the amazing people who volunteer at Greenlink Nursery. 🌱

Being 100% run by volunteers, we are so lucky to have such a passionate and committed community of like-minded individuals who give up their time every week to grow and nurture our wonderful indigenous plants for the local and wider community.

We have so much to be grateful for.

Our Vice President, Emi Luppino, was honored as one of the recipients of the 2026 Menzies Electorate Outstanding Community Volunteer Award and Greenlink was mentioned in Federal Parliament for the outstanding work they do for the environment and in the community.

So thankyou - we really couldn't do it without our wonderful volunteers!!

It's been a super busy time at the nursery these past few weeks, culminating in the installation of our new polyhouse, bigger and better than before!!

Our last one came to a sorry end after an altercation with a huge tree branch from our (still beloved) Eucalyptus rubida. All is forgiven, and the outcome is that we now have more space to grow more plants!! Yippee! 🌱🌱🌱🤸‍♀️

Our volunteers did an amazing job this week, putting down a fresh layer of gravel before realigning the plant benches, sorting out racks, pots and tubes etc, and having a general clean-up around the nursery.

Well, we are back up and running. The tree branch has been cleared and our site is safe. Despite the damage to our polyhouse which is a write off which will need to be replaced along with our watering system, not a single plant was harmed. Thank you for your understanding and your concerns and ongoing support. Trevor Eddy
