KCons collects seeds of local native flora and grows them in its 10000 plant nursery. The plants are available to members of the public at a modest price. KCons members, and other volunteers from the community, regularly plant public and private regeneration projects. KCons also provides plants for allied organizations.
The list of plants which are generally available at the nursery can be found at Nursery Plant List. The list will vary according to plantings and sales and seasonal supply of seeds.
The Kuranda Conservation Community Nursery at Pademelon Lane is open all the time, except when it’s occasionally not!
Our aim is to make it easy for you to get native species on to your property by supplying cheap (but the best) plants. We carry lots of low growing plants for screens, under powerlines, close to your house or to hold erosion.
AND …
We specialise in Cassowary food plants and are keen to get you thinking about planting native timber trees – a rare sustainable resource for the future.
We enjoy the company of our friends on a Saturday morning and get heaps of seeds sown and plants potted – along with downing cups of tea and coffee. Please feel free to pop by.
