You could be forgiven for not realising that just beyond the estates of the urban fringe lies a world with a completely different pace of life. Industrious farmers and innovators work hard every day to make and grow produce for you to taste and enjoy. Whether it’s great tasting produce, specialist advice or a unique experience there’s a lot to taste and discover in this under-explored part of the world that’s so close to Perth.

Local Pick Your Own Mangoes.

It is no secret that fruit grown in a more temperate environment has a superior flavour and higher sugar content. Perth’s cold winter has proven to be advantageous in giving our fruit the edge when it comes to flavour and sweetness. Our trees have been propagated from seeds sourced from the Bowen region of Queensland.
