GLOBAL EXPERTISE.
AUSTRALIAN-GROWN EXCELLENCE.
Our medicinal cannabis is cultivated in the Noosa Hinterland, Queensland, where abundant natural sunlight, warm conditions and natural airflow provide a distinctive environment for greenhouse cultivation.
Our hybrid greenhouse approach combines these natural advantages with controlled growing systems, creating an environment designed to support the development of high-quality medicinal cannabis.
Led by internationally experienced Master Grower Chad Esch, our cultivation team brings together specialist expertise, precision growing practices and a commitment to producing clean, consistent, high-quality crops.

Why the Noosa Hinterland?
The Noosa Hinterland offers a distinctive combination of natural conditions that support our approach to medicinal cannabis cultivation.
Abundant sunlight, strong natural airflow and limited surrounding agricultural activity provide environmental advantages that can help reduce exposure to certain pests and disease pressures.
While Queensland’s subtropical climate presents its own challenges, our cultivation team brings the experience required to work with these conditions and identify cultivars suited to the local environment.
Together, the region’s natural characteristics and our hybrid greenhouse approach provide a strong foundation for Australian-grown medicinal cannabis.
