Authors Geoff Allemand and Peter Matthews document the cannery's journey from its humble origins in 1922 through to its centenary in 2022, presenting a rich tapestry of the workers, the machinery, the seasons, and the community spirit that kept the production lines running through war, hardship, and prosperity alike. Drawing on photographs, personal recollections, and archival records, the book illustrates how the processing of local fruit bound together generations of Kyabram families and shaped the social and economic fabric of the region.\n\nProduced as an initiative of the Kyabram Cannery Centenary Committee, this lovingly compiled volume is far more than an industrial history — it is a testament to the enduring relationship between land, labour, and community in regional Australia. Allemand and Matthews write with warmth and scholarly diligence, ensuring that the voices of the workers who filled those long production tables are never lost to time. For anyone with ties to Kyabram, the Goulburn Valley, or Australia's proud cannery heritage, this centenary edition asks a quietly urgent question: what do we owe to the industries and the people who made us who we are?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51022580056283,"sku":"2026100012308-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/dda1eb97-9494-4e47-8bed-29977b333d7c.png?v=1793665216","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100012308-secondhand-kyabram-cannery-1922-2022","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
