PEMBERTON.
OR AS WE LIKE TO CALL IT, PARADISE.
LOOKS GOOD
FROM UP HERE.
YOU SHOULD SEE THE
SOIL DOWN THERE!
Delcados are slow grown in Western Australia’s pristine Pemberton region, one and a half hours south east of Margaret River. Pemberton is an historic timber town nestled amongst the world-famous giant karri tree forests.
Back in the day, the Delroys almost nomadically wandered around WA looking for the best place to grow their avocados. In truth, they could’ve chosen almost anywhere. But they settled on this majestic slice of the southwest as the perfect spot.
ONE OF A KIND
There’s a pretty unique set of circumstances happening here, in WA’s southwest. The climate of very hot summers as well as an absolute tonne of rain seems to be ideal. Then when you combine that with the nutrient rich karri loam soil, you have some pretty perfect avo growing conditions. And as luck would have it, as the trees begin to mature, the position of the gully protects the precious fruit from the famous ‘Doctor’ winds. Come to think of it, maybe that was less luck and more good planning!
