Custom Seed Packets
find it. love it. shop it.
Seed packets sit at the intersection of ESG, event giveaways and symbolic brand. At $1.50–4 branded they're the cheapest item in sustainable promo, but the real appeal is the message: your recipient grows something.
Seed packets sit at the intersection of ESG, event giveaways and symbolic brand. At $1.50–4 branded they're the cheapest item in sustainable promo, but the real appeal is the message: your recipient grows something. Sense2 sources Australian native wildflower mixes, bush tucker herbs, sunflowers and culinary herbs. The packets themselves print full-colour on FSC stock with compostable seed inserts. NSW councils, Landcare groups and ESG-forward banks buy them in runs of 500–5,000 for Clean Up Australia Day and community-impact campaigns.
Seed packets are the only giveaway that rewards the recipient for keeping you on the kitchen bench.

How to choose custom seed packets
Seed choice is the decision that matters most. Australian natives (kangaroo paw, everlasting daisy, wattle, grevillea seed mixes) align with council, Landcare and biodiversity briefs and germinate in most Australian climate zones. Culinary herbs (basil, parsley, chives, coriander) are the reliable choice for food-industry, hospitality and restaurant launches — recipients actually grow and use them. Bush tucker (warrigal greens, lemon myrtle, finger lime) is distinctive for First Nations-adjacent brand stories but requires more detailed growing instructions.
Do NOT ship noxious-weed or invasive seeds across state borders — each Australian state has biosecurity restrictions. A reputable Australian seed grower supplies the compliance documentation required for agriculture, schools and government recipients. We source through two certified growers and can provide biosecurity certificates with every order.
Packet format: printed paper packets with loose seed (lowest cost, $1.20–2.50) work for mass giveaways. Seed-embedded paper (seeds baked into the paper itself, printed with your design) at $3–5 elevates the gift and turns the packet itself into the plantable item — strong for corporate Christmas cards and direct mail.
Branding: full-colour digital print is standard; foil stamping adds a premium finish for executive ESG gifting. Growing instructions, care tips and brand story print on the reverse.
Lead times: 3–5 weeks including seed sourcing. MOQs: 250 packets (standard), 500 (seed paper), 1,000 (custom-shaped die-cut).

Frequently asked questions
What's the minimum order?
250 printed seed packets with loose native or culinary seed. 500 packets for seed-embedded paper (where the paper itself is plantable). 1,000 units for custom die-cut shapes or bespoke seed blends sourced for your campaign specifically. Setup fees apply for custom blends.
Can I get native Australian wildflowers?
Yes. Kangaroo paw, wattle, everlasting daisy, grevillea, and regional native mixes (coastal, alpine, arid-zone) are sourced through certified Australian growers. Biosecurity certificates are supplied for inter-state shipping and for council, school and government recipients who require compliance documentation.
How long do the seeds stay viable?
Native and culinary seeds remain viable for 18–24 months when stored in cool, dry conditions. Seed-embedded paper extends viability to 12–18 months. Print a 'best by' date on the packet for any campaign where stock will be held longer than six months before distribution.
Do you supply growing instructions?
Yes. Each packet prints growing instructions on the reverse — sowing depth, spacing, watering schedule, germination time and flowering window. Instructions can carry your logo or be co-branded with a partner organisation (common for Landcare, biodiversity NGOs, and council collaborations).
Can I send seed packets internationally?
Most seed exports require import permits from the destination country and may be restricted or prohibited. For international campaigns we recommend either sourcing seed locally in the destination country or switching to seed-paper items which face fewer biosecurity restrictions. Ask for case-by-case advice.
What's the lead time?
3–5 weeks including seed sourcing and printing for standard native and culinary mixes. Bespoke seed blends or regional native mixes add 2–3 weeks for seed collection and cleaning. Clean Up Australia Day and Earth Day campaigns should order 8+ weeks ahead due to peak demand.
