These plants are good quality, hardy plants; and are sold at an affordable price, ranging from $2.20 to $2.80 (forestry tube size). For the full list of nursery fees, see Operational Plan 2024/2025 (see pages 100 & 101).

There are over 130 different native plant species that the Hawkesbury Community Nursery has propagated. These range from trees, shrubs to groundcovers and suit a variety of situations in the Hawkesbury. These include creeks and riverbanks, paddocks and fence lines, home gardens and revegetation works in a variety of soil types. See the current list of available plants.

The plants can be used for a variety of purposes such as landscaping, erosion prevention, providing native animal habitat, and bushland restoration projects.

Schools in the Hawkesbury Local Government area can receive 4 free native plants of their choice every year from the Hawkesbury Community Nursery.
