About Us

A regenerative Northern Rivers is not a distant dream

It is being visioned and developed right now by the passionate individuals, organisations, and communities who call this place home. These changemakers are restoring landscapes, strengthening food systems, and weaving the fabric of resilient communities. But they can’t do it alone.

At Seed Northern Rivers, we stand alongside them-a catalyst, a connector, and a backbone organisation-empowering the leaders, networks, and movements that are regenerating this region.

Seed Northern Rivers currently works with and supports an ecosystem of 40+ not-for-profit environmental organisations, social enterprises and initiatives, across four thematic impact areas: Healing Country (Regeneration and Reforestation), The Future of Food, Education and Creative Activation, Stronger Together (Community Resilience and Climate Action).

This past year:
We supported our members through mentoring, peer networks, communities of practice, skills development and training, as well as business, governance, fundraising and technical support.
We continued to activate and manage the 7-acre Mullum Gardens Eco-Hub, which incubates a range of environmental initiatives.
We have launched-and continue to steward-flagship collaborative impact initiatives together with our member organisations including the Bruns River Keepers Alliance, the Northern Rivers Changemakers Hub and The Northern Rivers Food Systems Alliance.
