Woodburn is best known within New South Wales for its position on the Richmond River, a broad tidal waterway in the Northern Rivers district. The town developed as a river port, and its low-lying streets still reflect the close relationship between settlement, farming country and the river. Sugar cane is an important part of the surrounding agricultural landscape, with the Broadwater Sugar Mill operating nearby. Woodburn stands on Bundjalung Country and is associated with the annual Woodburn Cup race meeting, a longstanding local occasion. More a working riverside town than a coastal resort, it has connections to the beaches and estuaries around Evans Head.
