History
William Brewer and Elisabeth "Granny" Brewer, esteemed pioneers of apple farming in the picturesque and serene region of Beechworth, dedicated their hearts and souls into the meticulous and careful cultivation of premium, high-quality apples. Their innovative and forward-thinking farming methods and techniques not only significantly influenced the apple farming landscape but also laid the essential and foundational groundwork for future orchard practices that many would subsequently come to adopt and embrace. This unwavering dedication to excellence, along with their commitment to the preservation of agricultural heritage, has transcended time, continuously shaping the ethos and identity of Brewers Orchard as it stands today. The Brewers' enduring and impactful legacy not only revolutionized apple cultivation in the beautiful region of Beechworth but also solidified their esteemed place as key figures within the local community's rich tapestry of history and cherished tradition. The original shepherds shed at Brewers Farm, Wooragee, still stands today.
