The Kelly Family have been growing vegetables in Australia for approximately 150 years, after migrating from Ireland. The original farm was in Cheltenham, Victoria. In 1968 Kelly Bros was established and began farming in Dandenong, expanding to Yarrawonga in 1990. The property at Dandenong was sold in 2006 due to industrial growth in the area. Kelly Bros has moved their entire operations to Yarrawonga. The climate and growing conditions on the banks of the Murray River allow the company to produce the finest quality vegetables for both the Australian and Export markets. Kelly Bros farm a total of 1700 acres annually. The main crops are: carrots, parsnips, spinach, leeks, cos lettuce, salad onions Kelly Bros specialise in the highest quality of vegetable produce…. ” After all Fresh is Best…” The high standard of the Yarrawonga operations were recognised in 2002 when Leo Kelly received the Victorian Farm Management Award.
