Our Story

Where It Started
Jimboomba Turf was first established in 1973 on 200 acres alongside the Logan River on Cusack Lane at Jimboomba, Queensland Australia.
In 1980, Ray Davidson was sitting under a tree, reading newspaper the lunch was wrapped in, alongside his son Lynn, whilst taking a break from the blistering Western Queensland heat. They were working on a water bore on their sheep and cattle property that day when Ray saw an advertisement in the paper for a turf farm that was for sale in Jimboomba. “Plenty of water”, it read. Something that was in short supply in western Queensland
During a trip to Brisbane, shortly after that sunny day under the tree, Ray felt compelled to visit the property. He phoned his son Lynn and said it’s on a river that never runs out of water! By July 1981, Ray and Lynn Davidson had sold Manfred and moved themselves and their family to the ‘big smoke’ to start turf farming.
Coming from a family of hard workers, that life on the land inherently brings out in people, both worked hard to grow that small turf farm (that only supplied the grass that just grew naturally on the ground) into the name you can trust in turf today (that supplies some of the leading and most trusted grass varieties around). -
Our History
Lynn Davidson, always being an innovative thinker, helped bring about the concept of introducing new grass varieties to the market. These varieties brought with them better traits for the South East Climate and versatility for the different soils in the area. Such grasses include the Winter Green Couch variety ‘Nullarbor’ and the ever favourite soft leaf Sir Walter DNA Certified Buffalo; both have stood the test of time and influx of different varieties over the years.
In 1988 Lynn’s younger sister, Cherie, joined the business and, over time, became the administrative backbone of the company. With Ray’s passing in 1999, Cherie took ownership alongside Lynn until passing in 2020 after a long battle with cancer - a huge loss for the Jimboomba Turf Family.
Cherie - "Forever Young"

The New Farm
In 2008 another 300-acre farm was purchased further upstream on the Logan River at Allenview, in the lovely Scenic Rim region. This property was dubbed the Allenview Production Facility and the name remains today. This farm’s soil composition is predominantly heavy black clay and is now where all our turf is grown after the Cusack Lane farm was sold in 2020. So whilst we technically don’t have a farm in Jimboomba anymore we’re still very much apart of the Jimboomba community, being just up the road and up the river. The reduction in land size has seen the company reduce in size and focus’s now predominately on supplying premium grass varieties to our beloved retail customers new and old, our trusted landscapers and our major client Bunnings. -

The Team Today
Jimboomba Turf is now part of the Australian Turf group of companies. Jimboomba Turf is led by General Manager, Renee Davidson who having grown up in the business of turf, feels a deep connection to the company, its people and its reason for existence. Together, with an amazing team of long standing loyal staff alongside them, Jimboomba Turf have sent turf products to most parts of Australia, Middle East, and many parts of Asia, for various Golf Course projects over the years.
One of the key strengths of the business over some 40 years has been the tenure of many of the staff, some of which are still with us today, this incredible depth of knowledge is drawn upon daily for the benefit of our customers.
Jimboomba Turf was a founding member of Lawn Solutions Australia, is at the forefront of erosion solutions and was one of the early pioneers of the hydro mulching techniques we see today. But the core business of growing and supplying innovative turf grasses remains the backbone.
Bunnings
Jimboomba Turf saw like-minded pioneers in Bunnings Warehouse. They started working with them soon after they first came to Queensland in the late 1990’s. Together, pioneering instant lawn in big box hardware stores.
Fast forward to 2022 and with a dedicated team working directly with Bunnings, the relationship has grown from strength to strength. Jimboomba Turf Group now exclusively supplies Bunnings stores from Morayfield in the north, Dalby, Toowoomba and Warwick to the west, Lismore and Ballina to the south and everywhere in between. They have even assisted with product shortages for other regions as far away as Sydney.
