This is a great show where the cast interact well with the audience. This was a fun and enjoyable show that appeals to all ages from young kids to adults, it weaves the true story with a strong thread of humour that everyone can enjoy. We had a great time and I recommend anyone visiting Strahan see it. One tip, wear warm cloths, they provide blankets but on a cold night it helps to be well dressed

Beautiful workshop with lovely pieces - I bought two chopping boards, a large straight rolling pin (I will never complain about the pastry being too wide for the rolling pin) and a spurtle. Lovely place to browse and see the items being made

Morrisons Huon Pine Saw Mill is without a doubt, the best place to buy a Huon Pine chopping board or other gifts from their well stocked shop on site. Very friendly and obliging and the best variety of things to buy. so glad we didn't wait until we got to the the Huon Valley or Hobart, there was nothing to compare with this .
