Our Story
We are, at our heart, an Australian owned seed business, producing world class Australian products. We are Queensland’s oldest and most experienced native seed providers. Producing quality seeds has always been our passion, and we have been working with our clients for over thirty years to improve our products and our knowledge.
We have built a reputation based on integrity, trust, quality seeds and expert advice. We are a values-based business built on long term relationships, and fair play. Our client’s ongoing success is a key part of our story, we have learned and grown with the industries we serve.
Having pioneered the native seed industry in Queensland, we continue to be industry leaders, implementing international best practises throughout every aspect of our business. We continually invest in research and development to develop our knowledge and products. Our mission is to reduce the number of seeds sown, by improving establishment rates.
As our product development shifts to naturally derived inputs, we are experiencing rapidly increasing demand in the regenerative agricultural sector which, is addressing the same issues we have faced for many years in mining rehabilitation.
We are proud of what we have achieved over the past thirty years and looking forward to the next thirty years!

Our Future
Our future is in supporting rehabilitation and regenerative agriculture by providing specialist advice, products, and services.
We are transitioning to naturally derived seed treatment ingredients, without synthetic chemicals, binders or treatments.
We are pioneering new treatments and processes which utilize modern technology to deliver natural solutions.
We are working with other like-minded Australian farmers, scientists, and seed companies to develop a synergistic approach to broadscale land regeneration.
Quality seed in combination with application of organic carbon, minerals and soil microbes, we believe will be the foundations of all successful regeneration strategies in the future.
Above all, we are passionate about what we do, since inception we have positively impacted on many thousands of hectares of disturbed land, and we look forward to continuing to make a positive contribution in the years ahead.
We believe Terralogica will play a significant role in the carbon revolution in Australia over the coming years, and we look forward to being a part of your regeneration success story.
