Pindimar
Our Farm is located on the pristine shores of Port Stephens above the coastal village of Pindimar. Pindimar is a small village at the mouth of Kore Kore Creek and approximately ten minutes drive from the towns of Tea Gardens and Hawks Nest.
Pindimar is an Aboriginal name meaning 'Black Possum'. Originally the site was proposed for the development of Pindimar City as a port for overseas shipping in 1918. It was also the suggested site of a naval base for the Pacific Fleet by Admiral of the Fleet, Viscount Jellicoe, in 1919. The proposed city was designed by W. Scott Griffiths and covered an area of 7,000 acres. Plans for the development included farming lots for returned soldiers, a railway link, industrial and educational zones, a cathedral, golf links, and cemeteries. The proposal was later rejected and the city never eventuated.
