Farina is one of those historic towns which was settled during the early opening of the ‘outback’. Surveyed in 1878, it was named ‘Farina’, with the hope it would become the ‘Granary of the North’. Instead, lack of rain saw the town develop as the head of the railway and the beginning of all the tracks beyond.

Today, you can view the ruins that remain. They are ruins that tell a story of lives lived and the struggle they faced. Visit the cemetery and wonder at the cultures that came together to build and open the ‘vast outback’.
