Woodleigh Hills manufactures all products in South Australia under strong regulatory oversight and is certified to use the Australian Made logo, supporting transparency and traceable processes. Ethical ingredient sourcing includes growing key Australian native botanicals on their own farm and prioritising local suppliers, such as regional olive oil producers and a local apiarist for ethically harvested beeswax. The brand conducts no animal testing, pays all staff above award rates and fosters a supportive, inclusive rural workplace.
Woodleigh Hills grows key Australian native botanicals on its South Australian farm, ensuring full traceability and protecting wild plant populations by cultivating rather than wild harvesting. The brand prioritises local sourcing, including extra virgin olive oil and beeswax, to reduce supply chain emissions. Packaging is primarily recyclable and designed for reuse, with initiatives encouraging container returns and exploring refillable systems. All products are manufactured locally to minimise transport impact and shipping uses recycled and compostable materials, supported by community donations to reduce waste.
Woodleigh Hills supports its rural community through quiet acts of giving, such as regularly donating products to individuals and families in need, including a 12-month supply for a child with severe eczema and contributions to elderly community members and local homes. The brand sponsors local sporting clubs and regional talent, including a young cricketer, a national shearing champion and an Indigenous eightball player. They also deliver educational talks on native plant healing, run wellbeing workshops for women and maintain inclusive, flexible employment for local people, including school leavers and families.

Product Reviews by Experts


What I liked most about this product was how versatile it was for the whole family. I used it on my children for minor bumps and bruises, and it was gentle and easy to apply. I also gave it to my mum to use on her arthritic joints, and she found it really helpful for reducing inflammation and easing acute pain. She especially liked applying it before her chiropractic appointments, as she felt it helped improve her comfort beforehand. It was a product that we both reached for regularly and were genuinely impressed with. What impressed me most was how deeply the brand’s values are woven into every part of the business. I loved that they grow many of their own Australian native botanicals on their family farm rather than wild harvesting them, helping to protect native ecosystems while supporting full transparency from farm to finished product. Their commitment to small batch Australian manufacturing, recyclable packaging, supporting local suppliers, and creating flexible employment opportunities for rural families is genuinely inspiring. I was especially moved by their quiet acts of generosity, from donating products to people in need to supporting local sporting clubs, Indigenous communities, and regional talent. It feels like a brand that truly cares about people, community, and the environment, not just the products they create.


I love that it is only 3 ingredients. Nothing extra that isn’t needed is added. It has no smell, which I loved! It feels beautiful on the skin. My husband recently had a flare-up of back and this product along with a heat pack worked wonders for him. I am super impressed that it is a very thought out business in all aspects, but especially when it comes to sustainability, transparency and integrity. I love how it’s all Australian, grown and manufactured here. It appears to be a beautiful family business that quietly gives back to their community and they as a company appear to be constantly partaking in random acts of kindness. The note they sent with the product is a great example of this and the nature of their business.


This rub is so easy to use and has a wonderful feel to it. I have used it for aches and pains on myself, and my family and I love that it is simple, with divinely safe and nourishing ingredients so I don’t have to stress when I use it to treat my children’s aches and growing pains. A brilliant addition for the natural first aid kit. There is something about using products that contain native plant extracts that gives a deeply nourishing essence to the product. I’m impressed the brand keeps their ingredients sustainably and locally sourced and admire the heartfelt approach to their social responsibility as a small business that quietly raises up the community around them. I really appreciate these small (sometimes large) actions that make a real impact in the lives of your own community.
