Area Profile
First settled by Europeans in the 1840s searching for the "red gold" of Red Cedar (toona australis), found in abundance in the subtropical rainforest cloaking the region, Crystal Creek became renowned as part of the largest alluvial gold fields in New South Wales by the 1870s.
When the gold ran out, the settlers who remained turned to banana, dairy and cattle farming.
Now new settlers, taking advantage the Tweed Valley's unique volcanic soils and micro-climates, have diversified local farming activities.
Areas of interest include organic farming, coffee, tea, rabbits, medicinal and edible bushtucker, herbs and spices, hydroponics, aquaculture, permaculture, farm forestry, and tropical and sub-tropical fruits.
Many others are taking advantage of the region's natural attractions and proximity to the popular tourist destinations of Byron Bay and the Gold Coast, with tourism ventures like farmstay, home stays, health retreats and bed and breakfasts.
What-ever your dreams or ambitions, the amenity and beauty of this property, will provide you with ample opportunity to pursue the lifestyle of your choosing.
