Episode Details

For nearly six decades, the Berrivale cannery in South Australia was a regional titan, processing one in five oranges grown in the country and offering steady jobs to generations of families. Though shuttered in 2010, its legacy lives on through heartfelt reunions where former workers laugh, reminisce, and honor the camaraderie that turned daily tasks into cherished memories. The cannery’s impact extended beyond employment—it was a cornerstone of the local economy and even hosted the Australian film “Peaches” in 2004, while pioneering experiments like soy milk production showcased its innovative spirit. Its closure left a void in regional communities, but the enduring bonds among its workers ensure its story continues to thrive, with hopes for future gatherings to keep its legacy alive.
