A thriving Pecan Orchard in the heart of Western Australia adjacent to the Mumballup Townsite, 20km east of Donnybrook townsite, comprising of 248acres of prime land.
Mumballup Pecans offers a rare opportunity to acquire a well-established and continuously developing Pecan orchard in the scenic South West. Founded in 1980, the property began with the planting of 910 grafted pecan seedlings, strategically interplanted with 2,400 stone fruit trees to generate early cash flow while the pecans matured.
As the pecan trees flourished, the stone fruit was gradually removed to optimize growing conditions and minimize operational challenges. Over time, the orchard has evolved into a highly productive pecan-growing enterprise.
Today, the property boasts approximately 2,000 mature, nut bearing pecan trees, along with an additional 1,000 younger grafted or rootstock trees currently developing into full production. Regular ongoing planting ensures continued orchard expansion and productivity into the future.
This is an ideal acquisition for investors, tree crop producers, or lifestyle buyers seeking a turnkey operation with a proven track record and room for continuous growth.

Additional Income Streams:

Livestock:
Sheep are grazed within the orchard for the control of pasture and weed growth which eliminates the necessity of mowing and provides another avenue of income by selling the lambs produced. Currently running a flock of 250 breeding Ewes.
