**About GreenInc - a Bedford-backed social enterprise**

We all want to be part of something bigger. It’s in our nature. It’s why at GreenInc we’re moving the earth to make a difference and removing barriers to employment for people with disability. Our large-scale landscape construction projects are creating new environments, sewing seeds and repurposing resources to pave the way for a brighter future for our workforce, the community and the environment.

Not only are we changing the landscapes across SA, we’re changing the landscape of employment opportunities. GreenInc is an inclusive environment - a place to work together, enjoy group success and build confidence and skills to deliver quality landscape construction and horticultural services.

GreenInc has grown out of APG (Adelaide Property and Gardens) which remains an integral supported employment offering at Bedford, with a focus on garden maintenance.

Backed by Bedford, GreenInc is one of three social enterprises that offers career pathways and a diverse range of open employment jobs and the opportunity to earn a full award wage. This significant investment and positive change will offer unprecedented choice for people with disability and continue to build on Bedford’s proud 75+ year history of inclusive employment.
