Grass Patch is a small town on the Coolgardie-Esperance Highway which was once a watering hole point for the Esperance-Norseman Railway.

Established in 1923, Grass Patch was named after a nearby farm of the same name that had been settled around 1896 and was renowned for bountiful crops and good grass.
