Weather permitting, we will be conducting a planned burn on 14 March 2026 at Savage River as part of the state-wide Fuel Reduction Program which is aimed at reducing the bushfire risk to help protect lives and communities.

Smoke may persist some days afterward depending on wind conditions.

During burning operations public access to this area will be restricted.

The public is asked to remain well out of the burn site while the burn is taking place and for the following days until safety checks have been made along tracks and trails.

In a small town like ours, you don’t just have customers, often you really get to know people. Alot of our customers we knew before we had the shop. We share a laugh, a few stories, spend a tiny fraction of our life together. That is truly the best part of being here.

On the flip side of that is the weight it brings. When we lose someone, it really leaves a space. To us it’s not just someone who popped into the shop, its someone we care about, it’s someone who was part of our community, part of what makes this place feel like home.

Running a little shop in a town like this fills your heart in the best possible ways, but it can really break it sometimes too. We just want to say how much we appreciate everyone who’s been part of our story. You matter more than you probably realise.

Rest in Peace Jan you will be missed by many 💜🙏
