MUMBALLUP PECANS
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.

Sustainability and Biosecurity:
• New trees are propagated on-site using budwood from established trees to maintain consistency and avoid disease
• The farm operates as a closed system to protect genetic integrity and orchard health
• Life expectancy of pecan trees is up to 200 years, reducing the need for frequent replanting
Market and Distribution:
The orchard's produce is sold via multiple channels:
• Bulk sales to Perth wholesalers (mainly packed in 10kg vacuum-sealed boxes)
• Retail-sized packs for local markets and on line customers
• Additional nut varieties such as walnuts and macadamias (sourced locally) also processed and sold
Demand remains consistently strong for the locally produced product, with 100% sold annually, and growing consumer interest in pecan health benefits continues to boost sales.
There is a large import of Pecan products into Western Australia which allows plenty of opportunity to expand the production from the existing orchard as it matures.
Additional Income Streams:
• Pecan timber harvested for wood chips, sawdust, pellets or furniture-grade timber which is a growing market
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.
Pests and Disease:
As the trees are not natural to Australia there are no disease problems occurring to affect the growth of the trees and no pesticide spraying is required. Minor mechanical tree maintenance is carried out to control tree growth and allow Nut production to occur.
