About Us
Located in Geraldton, in the Midwest of Western Australia we demonstrate the practical application of Permaculture and environmental conservation.
We operate as a not-for-profit environmental organisation – The Drylands Foundation.
Our enterprises that fund our work in conservation and sustainability include:
Drylands Permaculture Nursery
Local native and multi-use plants for Geraldton and the Midwest Western Australia
‘locally owned, locally grown’
Garden Honey
Harvested by hand from our Bees that forage from our Permaculture Gardens and Native Tree Crops
‘Chemical Free, Hand Harvested Honey’
Yilgarn Seeds
Non-GMO, Open pollinated vegetable and herb heirloom seeds; and endemic native seeds
‘Protecting regional biodiversity and food security’
We offer environmental education and sustainability training as Permaculture practitioners, and are hosts for ‘Willing Workers On Organic Farms’ (WWOOF) and HelpX.
Tours of our farm and volunteering opportunities are available for individuals and organisations interested in learning more about Permaculture and sustainability in drylands environments.

We are potting up again this Sunday- 10.00am - 1.00pm
It will be 35C and we will be working under shade.
Had a great day last Sunday with 100's of plants repotted and looking fantastic in their new white bags. Thankyou to all our helpers last week, you did a wonderful job.
Bring a hat, gloves (optional), your waterbottle and a friend, the more hands the merrier!
We will teach you all you need to know if you have never done it before and want to give it a go.
Please note this is an adult event and not suitable for young children or pets. We will provide a cup of tea if you would like to bring something to eat and share you are welcome.
After the event we can show new interested participants the progress of our strawbale teaching building!
More nursery volunteer days over the next few Sundays for those that are keen, we will be doing a range of activities including striking cuttings, seeding, filling tubes and more....
