Grenfell Information
Grenfell is the birthplace of the great Australian Poet, Henry Lawson and haunt of the notorious bushranger Ben Hall. Grenfell has some of the best examples of heritage architecture in Australia with the Main Street maintaining the charm of days gone by. A walk around the town gives the visitor an idea of what the town would have been like back in the goldrush days. Featured close by is the Weddin Mountains National Park, a haven for native animals and birdlife. The Weddin's were a hangout for Ben Hall and his gang and you can still view Ben Halls Cave. Seaton's Farm is a great example of how the settlers to the areas battled the elements and is also located and the Weddin Mountains.
A Festival of Arts is held every June long weekend to celebrate Henry Lawson birth and highlights include poetry readings, art and photography exhibitions, street carnival, historical tours and many other special events. Guinea Pig Races are another uniquie event that is held twice a year in Grenfell and have to be seen to be believed!
Grenfell is predominantly a farming community growing canola, wheat, oats, barley, rye and corn and raising beef cattle, sheep and pigs.
