Hi zippo, The Queensland Finch Society organize orders through the club for club members. The Lowes only sell in bulk batches for others to buy.
If you are interested in some contact the QFS. Cheers Craig
I apologize to Gary if my post was miss leading hence my edit.
Regards Craig

Just a clarification. Ray and Wendy only sell in pallet loads (385 x 2 kg tubs) at a much reduced pallet price. Pallet loads go to Victoria, Sydney, Hunter Valley. In Brisbane QFS aggregates small orders from members to get at least one pallet, exactly as happens in other places. Aggregated orders for Brisbane normally total 700-800 tubs. Once it is harvested we collect the whole order on one day and members who have ordered come to Morningside hall to collect and pay the Lowe’s directly. QFS doesn’t buy and resell to members and QFS doesn’t make anything out of this.
The frozen green seed is available only once a year and we provide this service only to members of QFS who can collect in Brisbane. Orders for the 2019 crop (which hasn’t been planted yet) are open now. This year it is $15 a tub at pallet price. Contact Gary Fitt (
