DID YOU KNOW?

By 1883 Alstonville

boasted 2 pubs, 6 stores, 2 black-smiths, 9 sugar mills, and 4 saw mills.

Alstonville is known for their rich volcanic red soil perfect for growing avocados, macadamia nuts, tropical fruits and coffee. The historic buildings have all the charm of yesteryear, housing a number of art and antique galleries, an historical museum and places to relax and enjoy the locally grown coffee. Originally known as Duck Creek Mountain, the village of Alstonville is central to many farms, orchards and nurseries and is famous for its Tibouchina trees which line the streets and add a vibrant green and mauve colour throughout the village when flowering. A must visit is the Summerland House Farm. Call into The Federal Hotel for that cold beer on a hot day and meet the locals.
