Paten Park Native Nursery is a not-for-profit, community-run nursery specialising in the indigenous plant species of south-east Queensland. Our purpose is to protect and restore the ecological values of south-east Queensland habitats by returning locally indigenous plants to the landscape. We aim to achieve this through: • Growing, selling and promoting the use of indigenous plant species for every situation, from large-scale revegetation projects to home gardens • Encouraging community awareness and appreciation of the importance of native plants in the environment • Promoting the use of locally native plants in place of exotic species • Providing volunteering and education opportunities for individuals to develop skills in identifying, selecting and growing native plants.
