About us.
Elevate Seeds was formed (2023) after Gavin (Springside) and Dave (Mitchell agri solutions) were Asked to initially help Grain and Seed Brokers with some mixes for his clients and that grew into Craig Smith asking if we would be interested in taking over the business allowing him a change in direction, as we aligned with Craigs passion for seed, plants and soil biology this seemed a perfect fit.
Our mission is to encourage the use of seeds, plants and soil biology to increase soil health fertility and restore natural balances within the soil.
Equipped with extensive knowledge accumulated after spending years directly involved in the farming, seed industry and Machinery and our association with Bioag. We are ready to take on the next production cycle wave.
We offer independent advice regarding the supply of seeds, and crops, the use of plants to develop soil structure, and through Bioag biological amendments to increase and restore diverse soil biology to enhance production.

Dave Mitchell
Mixologist.
After 40+ years in the Agricultural industry, 20 years ago i saw a need to change the way we farm to a more soil friendly approach to boost proactivity, that is both better for the land, animals and humans and won't cost the earth!. My solutions entail efficient and effective machinery Through Mitchell agri solutions.
The biggest game changer in soil friendly approach has been our development of multi species mixes that we Taylor to the Environmental asks of the farm and farming style.
Coupling this with a soil biology focus and you have the best possible production outcome.

My training in the small seeds started in the 1980s harvesting a range of crops on our North Otago property. DSIRs Tara Hills research station was at its peak and we often produced a range of species that the scientists earmarked with potential.
We purchased our first seed mixer in the early 1990s and set out to supply quality pasture mixes at a reasonable price direct to other farmers. Now with Elevate Seeds in the same way as the Tara Hills research looked to develop a range of options for the dryland farming situation, we recognize there are many more species available and many benefits from utilizing them.
