For more than a century, Leeton is known as the Heart of Australia’s Food Bowl. It is a title we are proud of and one we strive to continue to work hard to maintain.

We are also proud that our Shire is much more than that. It is a hub for innovative growers and manufacturers, an incubator for small business, a provider of quality education, and a new home for migrants and refugees. Most of all, we are a forward-thinking community that embraces opportunity.

History

Leeton's history is rich and diverse, encompassing both Indigenous and heritage narratives. The traditional custodians of the land are the Wiradjuri people, with a deep connection to the region's landscapes.

In the early 20th century, Leeton was established as part of the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Scheme, transforming the area into a thriving agricultural hub. The town's Art Deco architecture stands as a testament to its past, reflecting the prosperity of the irrigation era.

Leeton acknowledges its Indigenous heritage while celebrating its pioneering roots, creating a unique blend of cultures that defines its identity today.
