Who We Are
A decade of lemon myrtle craft
For more than ten years we've blended and handcrafted organic lemon myrtle products at our home base in Gympie, Queensland. The lemon myrtle itself is grown for us by Australian growers in the plant's native range, then made into our products here.
Everything we make follows the same simple commitment: quality native Australian lemon myrtle, sourced and developed sustainably and ethically. No harsh chemicals, no shortcuts, just the plant, our hands and a lot of care.
Along the way we've earned hundreds of satisfied customers across Australia who rely on our balms, moisturisers, cleaners, teas and oils every day.
- Certified organic ingredients
- Small batches, handcrafted locally
- Sustainable & ethical sourcing
The Plant
Why we chose lemon myrtle
Native to Queensland's subtropical forests, lemon myrtle has been valued for thousands of years, and modern analysis backs the tradition up.
First knowledge
Aboriginal peoples crushed the fragrant leaves to keep biting insects away and used them to cleanse and soothe wounds.
Citral powerhouse
At 95–98% citral, the highest concentration of any plant on Earth, lemon myrtle is naturally antibacterial, antiviral and antimicrobial.
Gentle by nature
Non-acidic and rich in vitamins A, B and E plus zinc, magnesium and calcium. Potent, but kind to skin and the planet.
