| Summary: |
Grapes were grown in abundance throughout the Cockburn district, and Jandakot was no exception. Grapes were grown for eating as well as wine production, and in 1902 Charles Trebley won first prize for his grapes, followed by his wife Elizabeth in second place. The newspaper report for the Jandakot Agricultural Show of 1902 noted: 'The show of grapes - notably lady's fingers, black grand Turk, and muscatels - was worthy of any vineyard. There were also a few varieties of wine grapes on the tables.' |
