DID YOU KNOW?

Bilpin was discovered in 1823 by nineteen year old Archibald Bell as a secondary pass through the Blue Mountains. The area’s fertile soil, mountain elevation and agreeable climate very quickly attracted settlers. These geographical, metrological and agricultural factors all combine to create the perfect fruit-growing environment. Bilpin was soon established as the premium fruit orchard of Australia.
