This July, As Green As Garden Centre celebrated an incredible milestone of 20 years of service to Tully and the Cassowary Coast. Established on 1 July 2005 by Lisa and Michael Godfrey, the business has grown from a modest selection of plants to a bustling, full-range garden and pet supply destination. Now under the management of their daughter and her partner, the centre continues to be a family-run business built on the values of great service, community spirit, and trust.
Open seven days a week (Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 5pm, and weekends from 9am to 2pm), the centre is known for its wide selection of products and welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're after plants, pet food, aquarium supplies, or unique giftware, you're bound to find something that suits your needs.
The plant range is extensive, with a great mix of Australian natives, tropicals, flowering varieties, ground covers, aquatics and more. You’ll find tube stocks, saplings, seedlings, bulbs and everything you need to top up an established garden or start fresh. There’s also a full selection of potting mixes, orchid mix, cocopeat, fertilisers, mulch, and decorative pots, all ideal for giving your garden new life.
Animal lovers are well catered for too. The store stocks dog, cat, bird, chicken, pig, and even roo food, as well as dog beds, collars, leads, cages, toys, scratchers, and wormers for a range of animals. Chickens, canaries, and budgies occasionally make an appearance, along with all the essentials to get started, like feeders, waterers, mealworms, and chicken treats.
Aquarium enthusiasts will find fish food, tanks, pond setup ideas and an ever-changing variety of fish, covering both indoor tank varieties and outdoor pond fish. For hydroponic growers, the store stocks trusted brands like Greenplanet, Cyco, and Massive Bloom.
The shop also offers gift lines, such as crystals, incense, fairy garden decorations, jewellery, and other whimsical items to fit your garden and homestyle dreams.
What truly sets As Green As Garden Centre apart is its commitment to personal service. The new managers say, “Our staff are always happy to answer questions and help you find what you need. We aim to make every visit a positive experience.”
As the business looks to the future, it does so with deep gratitude for two decades of community support. It’s clear that As Green As is more than just a garden centre; it's a valued part of the local landscape, growing alongside the people it serves.
