Jones Eucalyptus Oil

Jones Eucalyptus Distillery began with Arthur Jones better known, as Art and his brothers in 1909. In those early days Eucalyptus Bushes were cut by hand, with a siècle and carted to thevats by two draft horses and a dray. Around 1970 Kevin and Amy Jones moved to the farm and started their days working at the factory. Kevin being an intelligent man, built a device for his tractor which was used for the slashing and raking of the Eucalyptus patches, to rejuvenate the plants for better Eucalyptus oil production. Amy worked alongside her husband for hours each day, bringing home the Eucalyptus leaves as well as helping in the long and enduring process of making Eucalyptus Oil. Now days Jim and Karen Run the Distillery with some of the original equipment in use.
