Nomad Nursery: edible plant nursery in Carey Gully, South Australia
Veg & herb seedlings / edible perennials / fruit trees
The nomadic wholesale and direct-to-customer plant nursery supplying vegetable and herb seedlings, fruit trees, edible perennials and more. Our community-supported nursery grows plants in the Adelaide Hills, using organic inputs and love.
Our goal is to grow affordable edible plants using organic inputs for backyard gardeners, communities, small-scale growers and people who care about how their food is grown.
Nomad Nursery is the plant-tastic collab between Jackson Bennett (Urban Grow Boi) and myself. Together at our nursery nestled in beautiful Carey Gully, South Australia, we grow a mix of seedlings, fruiting plants, perennials and plants we always struggled to find as growers and avid gardeners.
Jackson and I noticed that the Adelaide region has a lack of suppliers that grow veggie and herb seedlings using organic permaculture principles and heirloom Australian seed. So, we decided to change that by starting our own nursery in 2024.

Meet Jackson Bennett and Kym Ormond
Jackson and I interestingly both got our love of food from the kitchen world and started out our careers working as professional chefs.
Over the years, we both yearned for a different lifestyle outside of stainless steel kitchens and over time we both found farming in our own way.
As passionate advocates for sustainable food practices, we’ve noticed how difficult it can be for growers in Adelaide to source organically grown heirloom seedlings.
Recognising this gap, we figured it was the perfect time to sprout a new nursery and give those seedlings and other plants a proper home.
Got a question?
Drop us a line here, and Jackson and I will get back to you soon.
