By turning waste into practical tools, we support a circular economy keeping materials in use, reducing reliance on finite resources, and helping build a more sustainable future.

Better Value. Everything you need.
Gardening on Country creates durable, Australian-made garden tools from 100% recycled plastic bottle caps. Unlike traditional tools, our products are designed as a one-piece construction for strength and longevity, while helping divert plastic waste from landfill and waterways. As an Aboriginal-owned business, we’re also grounded in caring for Country through practical, sustainable solutions.
Yes — every tool is made from post-consumer HDPE plastic, primarily collected bottle caps. For example, our Womby hand trowel diverts around 75 bottle caps from landfill. We collect, process, and manufacture the tools locally, giving new life to plastic that would otherwise go to waste.
Absolutely. We use HDPE (high-density polyethylene), a material commonly used in infrastructure like water pipes and playground equipment. Our tools are designed to be lightweight but strong, with a one-piece build that removes weak points — making them reliable for everyday gardening.
All of our products are proudly made in Australia, with manufacturing based on Gunaikurnai Country, in East Gippsland, Victoria. Keeping production local allows us to maintain quality, reduce transport emissions, and support Australian manufacturing.
