Ferguson

The Ferguson Valley is a verdant area to the east of Dardanup and lies within the Shire of Dardanup. The locality and a nearby river were named after Dr John Ferguson who was an early property owner in the vicinity. The Ferguson region has been traditionally used as cattle raising and dairying country. Wine production is now becoming common. Its picturesque qualities and proximity to Bunbury has made this valley an increasingly popular tourist destination
