There is currently a homestead called "Freshwater" which was adjacent to a private jetty where early settlers traded with the local natives.

Leganas have been described as a very good eating apple, sweet and nutty with dense, crisp, juicy white to yellow flesh.

After European settlement, Legana was initially a rural town made up of dairy farms, apple orchards, and cattle grazing.

[2][4] Like most smaller rural townships, sporting clubs play an important part of the social life of Legana.

Near the playground the council is planning to build a bicycle dirt jump park for the local youths to ride their bikes.

The Legana shopping center, anchored by a Woolworths supermarket, hosts a number of retail and food businesses.

Prominent among these is a KFC, hairdresser, chemist, post office, Banjos Bakery, the Reject Shop, Salvation Army Store.

At about this time the Legana area began to change from one of apple and pear orchards and dairy farming to a rural residential nature with a sub-division at Freshwater Point.

As Legana's population grew the existing members felt that the Fire Commission should provide a more suitable shed which was built in the early 80s.

The members went further however and after much hard work, fund-raising and lobbying they were able to ensure that a meeting room and office were incorporated into the new station that was finally opened in 1985.
