Our Community
Mingenew has essentially three basic ingredients. Economically, we are an agricultural powerhouse and the southern hemisphere’s largest grain facilitator. Aesthetically we are surrounded by breathtaking breakaway country, with fantastic flat-top ridges and, during WA’s wildflower season, we are arguably its most sought-after destination.

A big thank you to Angus, George & George from Scotch College and Dongara Senior High School for their hard work at our new daycare playground today!
