Philanthropists and impact investors are invited to get in touch to explore how you can make a deep and meaningful environmental, cultural, social, and economic impact. We are currently raising funds to buy into a Lemon Myrtle Farm, to develop a Wattleseed processing facility, and to develop a Wattleseed.
- Share land with us and First Nations native food farmers, so together, we can grow and harvest more native foods in a regenerative and culturally respectful way. We already have five collaborating farms including: Severn Park (Charles's Massy's Farm where we are harvesting native grains), Winderong Farm (where we are harvesting Cinnamon Myrtle and Lilly Pilly and more), Castle Creek (where we are harvesting Lemon Myrtle) and Rosewood (where we have planted 1,000 native trees). Many other farms have expressed their interest in collaborating and we are currently working to connect them with local people or to find investment to make harvesting viable. Get in touch if you'd like to find out more about how you can collaborate.
- Work with us. Get in touch if you'd like to find out more or email through a cover letter and CV so when work comes up we have you on file.
