Old Station lies where the coastal plains begin their gentle climb towards the Great Dividing Range, a place where the air carries the faint, sweet scent of eucalyptus and damp earth. It lies 45.3 km north of Port Macquarie, NSW (from Port Macquarie, NSW: bearing 2°T), and is situated 6.5 km east of Kempsey. The landscape here is a mosaic of rolling pastures, interspersed with pockets of dense bushland where the cicadas begin their insistent hum as the day warms. Creek lines, often dry in the hotter months, are marked by a thicker, greener vegetation, a promise of life that lies just beneath the surface, waiting for the rain. The sky overhead is a vast, ever-changing canvas, its blues deepening to indigo as dusk approaches, painting the scattered farms and grazing properties in a soft, golden light.
The history of Old Station is tied to the land’s bounty, its early days shaped by the cattle-grazing runs that once dominated this country. Later, dairy farming took hold, the rich pastures ideal for dairy herds, and the rhythm of milking cows and the cream truck became the pulse of daily life. While some of that dairy heritage remains, the local economy has diversified, with a growing number of residents finding work in the neighbouring centres or engaging in smaller-scale agriculture and market gardening. The main road through Old Station, a ribbon of bitumen cutting through the green and gold of the paddocks, sees a steady, unhurried flow of vehicles, a testament to a community that values its connection to the land and its neighbours.
