24.01.2022 Read how a tree in decline was turned into a bird habitat in Bushy Creek behind the nursery

24.01.2022 Greenlink is open on Melbourne Cup Day Tuesday 3rd of November from 9am to 1pm. The plants in our front garden are in full bloom, putting on a beautiful show.

22.01.2022 Victoria’s current COVID-19 restriction is: From 11:59pm on 22 July if you live in metropolitan Melbourne and the Mitchell Shire must wear a face mask/face covering, when you leave home. Wearing a face covering provides an additional physical barrier and helps to reduce community transmission. Greenlink will enforce the Victorian Government ruling and have a No Mask, No Entry rule in place at the nursery. The health and welfare of our customers and volunteers is important to us.

16.01.2022 The work that Greenlink Box Hill Inc. does is incredible - they grow plants that are indigenous to the greater Whitehorse area and reestablish them in their nat...ural habitat. I think that’s pretty great. Thanks to the invite to your end-of-year lunch and I look forward to working with you all in the years ahead.

16.01.2022 With the continuation of retail outlets remaining closed until 1st November, we unfortunately have to cancel our 24th October planned sale day.

14.01.2022 Woodhouse Grove Kinder Lovely photo from our adventures today! We explored, observed and collected nature, and we met some lovely volunteers down at Greenlink Nursery who were kind enough to give us a tour! What a treat :)

13.01.2022 Nesthouses for wildlife are a great way to give Mother Nature a helping hand. One of our dedicated volunteers builds his own Nesthouses and has kindly built one for the nursery. The house has been strapped to the large eucalypt near the polyhouse. Another interesting attraction for you to see next time you are visiting the nursery. Go to Greenlink website for more details on Nesting boxes https://greenlinkboxhill.org/nesting-boxes/ If you would like to order a nesting box for your garden, you will need to have a tree in your garden on which the box can be installed. Simply email us your inquiry to [email protected] and our member Robert Ham will be in contact with you.
