Our Story.
Bringing ALTERNATIVE TREATMENTS to Australia

Our indoor, small batch, GMP production facilities result in premium quality, consistent products. Our strictest standards include craft-like conditions and specially curated genetics – we don’t use pesticides. We focus on patient experience, and draw on the learnings from treating over 150,000 patients at our six Harvest Medicine clinics across Canada.
Beacon Medical Australia helps us bring this knowledge, care, and compassion to Australia patients.
