ABOUT US
We're a family-owned company specialising in Conservation & Land Management, Landscaping, and plant supply to the broader landscaping industry.
OUR STORY
The Habitat Creations story began in 2007 when we started our journey in Gippsland as an indigenous plant nursery, complemented by a small planting team. In the 14 years since, we’ve significantly increased our Nursery capabilities by adding two additional facilities, expanded planting teams, and developed specialised and unique services in the conservation and land management field.
​
Today, our footprint covers all of Gippsland and Greater Melbourne, and we’re proud of the industry reputation the Habitat Creations name enjoys, having successfully completed hundreds of projects for some of Australia’s most trusted and recognisable companies and government bodies.
​
As a company, we’re committed to achieving further growth through the continued development of our most important asset, our people. We’re proud of our ability to create development pathways for our staff, our dedication to equal opportunity and a diverse workforce, and our shared purpose for leaving a positive and long-lasting environmental legacy for our clients and local communities.
MANAGEMENT
TEAM
In 2015, the United Nations adopted 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). Many governments, UN entities, international and regional organizations and stakeholders are taking innovative steps towards implementing this ambitious global framework. Habitat Creations is fully supportive of many of these goals and work in our own way towards meeting targets at our level of business.
​
As a business, we are especially committed to addressing SDG 15 which is set up to "Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems". We do this via our direct, on-grounds contracted work and our internal practices, policies and beliefs.
Our management team is responsible for the day-to-day operations of Habitat Creations, bringing decades of varied experience in the landscaping, agriculture, environment, horticulture, government, and marketing industries. They lead our dedicated and passionate Conservation and Land Management, Landscaping, and Nursery teams.
