The Lost Seed Heritage Seed Bank is located within the grounds of 'Annsleigh Gardens' an historic, five acres Old World English garden situated in the north western part of Tasmania and only 10 minutes from Burnie. As well as being a retail outlet, it is a thriving online, Australian wide mail-order business.

The gardens are a place of beauty and serenity consisting of numerous 'rooms' and themes which are perfect for wandering around and getting 'lost'. As an added bonus, it also has (possibly) has one of the tallest pruned hedges in Tasmania (maybe Australia)!

Started over 60 years ago, the gardens were originally a home to a flock of sheep - simply a bare paddock! Over time it was developed by a lovely couple 'Pat and Lou' who established a vibrant cafe and open-garden. Eventually the gardens sold becoming an elegant wedding venue. In early 2025 the 100 seat conservatory was transformed into a seed bank with a vision of creating a place for people to visit and learn about our vegetable and fruit heritage, to learn about seed saving and as a base to distribute our rare seeds.

We've been going for more than 24 years and are ready to retire. We're looking for someone to take over our passion. We'd love for you to continue our journey in preserving our vegetable seed heritage.

The Conservatory (now operating as a seed bank - retail outlet) boasts a full commercial kitchen with prior development approval for a kitchen extension along with approval to add 5 B&B cottages set among the glorious 5 acres.

The Lost Seed Heritage Seed Bank and Annsleigh Gardens is located along a main tourist route providing access to Cradle Mountain, Strahan and the West Coast.

The nature of our business is such that it thrives in uncertain times and times of diversity.

WIWO - All existing kitchen, shop and garden equipment, seed stock etc included.

Well suited to a couple....
