Australian Grown
Heyday products are grown on farms right here in Australia. Our local producers are based in regional Victoria, close to the mighty Murray River.
Sustainably grown under the Aussie sun
Grown in living soil with local, organic compost
Protected by our Heyday quality guarantee
At Heyday, we achieve quality and complexity in our plants, sustainably. Heyday flower is sun grown in rural Victoria, some in polytunnels, some outdoors - using 96x less energy than indoor grows.
We use a grow facility that is solar powered and adopts regenerative agriculture and organic farming practices. The plants are grown in living soil on the farm and the soil is improved with organic local compost and garden sandy soil (both tested and certified as pesticide and heavy metals free).
The cannabis plant is highly complex, containing more than 500 different chemicals, including at least 140 cannabinoids which are unique to cannabis. At Heyday, we promote the entourage effect and believe the whole of the plant should be utilised for its therapeutic potential. Flower products are our foundation, as what can be more True to Plant than the whole flower itself! We carefully select strains based on their terpene profiles and the presence of minor cannabinoids, as these two factors alone greatly modulate the therapeutic effects and experience for patients.
In addition to our sun grown flower strains, Heyday specialises in unique product formulations that utilise lesser-known cannabinoids rarely used on the Australian market.

All of our medicines are GMP certified and tested to the highest quality standards and we are committed to supplying excellent quality medication to our patients. If you experience any issues with your medication, rest assured you are covered by our quality and freshness guarantee.
Growing cannabis medicine anywhere, particularly outdoors in living soil with no chemical inputs, is challenging. There will be natural variation from batch to batch. Growing outdoors we are more exposed to the weather and nature (insects, soil microorganisms etc).
We grow outdoors in living soil because we believe our plants are healthier and more complex in cannabinoid and terpene profiles when they:
1. get the full spectrum of beneficial light from the sun;
2. have to adapt and defend themselves against outdoor “stressors” - in particular, plants release more terpenes in a slightly stressed environment; and
3. Much like wine, produce flavours and characteristics that are unique to the season and the soil.
We also deeply care about our carbon footprint - the energy demand from lighting, heating and cooling in indoor grow environments is very high. In Colorado, US, for example, the cannabis industry accounts for 1.3 percent of the state’s total annual carbon emissions, according to the state’s Department of Public Health and Environment. This is similar to emissions from coal mining and trash collection for the entire state! - ref
Heyday flowers are released within 2 months of a harvest at our facility in regional Victoria and our flower is cured for 21 days.
Following curing, it is sent to irradiation to meet Australian standards. If you have a quality complaint or question about any of our medicines, please let us know. We want to hear about it so we can continue to improve our medicines and processes.
