Champion fruit packer at work on single layer strawberry punnets, ca. 1940

    Palmwoods, a rural township, is near the eastern foothills of the Blackall Range, 90 km north of central Brisbane and 17 km inland from Mooloolaba. Originally known as Merriman's Flat, the settlement's name was changed to Palmwoods when the North Coast railway opened. The uncleared scrub contained tall palm trees that could be split and used for guttering. In the 1870s there was spasmodic farm-selection activity around Palmwoods, and a wave of new settlers in the Maroochy region in the 1880s led to tree clearing for rich farmlands for fruit crops. When the railway line was opened in 1891 Palmwoods became an important outlet for produce, particularly citrus, and strawberries. It was the first opportunity for Palmwoods growers to sell on export markets. As nearby towns formed fruit growers associations, Palmwoods fruit growers formed theirs in about 1899. Further expansion of farmlands led to an increase in banana growing, so by the 1930s Palmwoods' 328 growers constituted one of Queensland's largest banana growing areas. The Palmwoods Progress Association started in 1902. Source: www.queenslandplaces.com.au/palmwoods

Strawberries, All Ripe!, All Ripe!

    See how the front doors are up the steps above street level. The space below the steps is known as the Area and the servants worked in the rooms down there with only a view of the brick retaining wall out of their window.
