By promoting native plants, we ensure greater biodiversity and strengthen the ecosystem – and not just in the rainforest, but right on our doorstep!
Why sow a sustainable future?
The organic seed mixture of native wildflowers provides valuable food for butterflies and the like. The pollen- and nectar-rich native flowers that you will sow or have already sown promote biodiversity in your region. In doing so, you are making our world a little bit better.
