Overview
Set on the edge of Ulladulla, Yumaro Nursery and Garden Centre is a place that feels real — full of colour, conversation, and life. It's a welcoming space where plants thrive, people connect and community grows naturally.
Their mission is simple — they nurture plants and people. Every plant sold helps them open doors and create more possibilities for local people living with disability. They're a social enterprise built on care, connection and the belief that good things grow when everyone gets a fair go.
The nursery hums with energy — coastal natives tough enough for the sea breeze, bright blooms that lift your mood and lush indoor greens that bring calm to any space. Everything is raised with patience and pride by a team who understand that growth takes time.
When you're ready to pause, grab a coffee and settle in. Their locally roasted beans are best enjoyed at the easy pace Ulladulla is known for.
At Yumaro, they believe the best things grow from the ground up — community, connection, and a fair go for everyone. Come for the plants, stay for the coffee and leave with something good.
