Green Pathways Nursery

Fairhaven’s Green Pathways Program is designed for school leavers with disability support needs who are ready to explore careers and hobbies in plant husbandry.

This program is a brilliant way not just to learn industry relevant skills, but build confidence, independence and genuine friendships.

Grow skills. Grow Confidence. Grow Futures.

Green Pathways Nursery – Horticulture Training & Work Experience (NDIS Supported)

Learn real skills. Build confidence. Choose your pathway.

Your journey begins with a Free 8-week training course in a supportive, hands-on environment.

During the course, you’ll:

Learn how to grow and care for plants
Build confidence working in a team
Gain real skills you can use in a job or at home
Have the opportunity to complete a nationally recognised White Card
