The legacy of the Shailer family is deeply woven into the fabric of this place. Shailer Park, nestled in the heart of Logan City, was named after Francis Frederick Rising Shailer and his wife Catherine who arrived in the area in 1866 with their children. They were pioneers, like many others, who first grew cotton and later transitioned to sugar cane. However, they are perhaps best known for their pioneering work in fruit growing. It was here that they established the first citrus orchard in southern Queensland, situated in nearby Slacks Creek. Shailer Park’s history is a testament to their hard work and dedication. Today, Shailer Park is a thriving haven, blending leafy urban living with a deep connection to its rural past. You can still sense a whiff of that past in the air, a blend of citrus blossoms and the smell of freshly turned earth. The Shailer family left an enduring mark on this vibrant community, and their legacy lives on in the name.
