Native Seedlings, Grown with Passion and Pride
Riverdene Nursery is a wholesale native plant nursery supplying bush seedlings for mine rehabilitation, council projects, landscape gardeners and revegetation works — all propagated from locally sourced seed.
Proudly 100% owned and operated by the Wonnarua Nation Aboriginal Corporation.
Get in TouchUnder New Management
In September 2025, the Wonnarua Nation Aboriginal Corporation (WNAC) took over Riverdene Nursery. The nursery is now a 100% Aboriginal owned and operated First Nations enterprise.
With great passion and pride, we have taken on this nursery to ensure its remarkable history continues. Riverdene still operates just as it has for the past fifty years under the Jupp family — the same quality, the same knowledge, and the same commitment to the land.
The WNAC community is looking forward to working alongside the East Gresford community to grow Riverdene into one of the largest employers in the area.

Unique Varieties, Local Provenance
Our nursery carries a wide range of native seedlings, all propagated from locally sourced seed. Riverdene also has many unique features and unique growing varieties you won't find elsewhere — the result of decades of plant breeding and selection on this site.
