Details: HOBDEN BROTHERS, Graziers.-The father of these gentlemen, a native of the Hawkesbury River, was reared in Sydney. He settled in 1840 on the land now occupied by his sons. It was at first of small area but was increased by purchase till he at last owned about 3000 acres. In 1847 he planted about three acres with vines-which was the first vineyard on Jerrys Plains -and these vines are yet yielding large results. The father died in 1877, since which the estate and business have been carried on by the sons under the style of Hobden Brothers. They added to the estate in 1880 by the purchase of over 700 acres and have now turned their attention largely to fruit growing, about forty acres being set apart as an orchard and vineyard. In the orchard there are apples, apricots, plums of various kinds, peaches in great variety, and many different kinds of oranges. As fine oranges are produced here as in any part of the colony, and also a species of lemon which grows to an enormous size, the largest measuring twenty-three inches in circumference. The soil on which the orchard and vineyard are planted is a sandy loam and very rich, which, with the climate, seems well adapted for the production of almost every kind of fruit that can be grown in a temperate tropic. Beside fruit-growing the firm have a large area of grazing land stocked principally with horses and cattle, among which are two very fine stallions, kept for station use. Of late years Messrs. Hobden Brothers have been exhibitors at the local agricultural shows, and have taken several prizes for their fruit.
