To Our Valued Customers,

From July 1, a number of major government changes are coming into effect that will directly impact small businesses like ours:

Minimum wage and award wages are increasing by 3.75%, the second time in 12 months.

• Superannuation contributions will rise to 12%.

• New licensing fees and regulations are being introduced for to***co retailers in NSW.

• Electricity prices are set to rise by up to 9.7% in some areas, hitting small businesses hard.

• The overall cost of living continues to rise, including insurance premiums, supplier costs, freight, electricity, water, council rates, licensing fees, and other overheads that most people don’t see behind the scenes.

We’ve done everything we can to absorb these rising costs but unfortunately, we’ve now reached the point where we have no choice but to increase our prices. This decision is not taken lightly, it’s simply what we need to do to keep our doors open.

We hear a lot, that’s the best and the worst part of being a local store in a small town. People come in for more than just groceries and food, they come in for a chat, to share news and to connect. So yes, we’ve heard the talk that we’re ‘too expensive” and while we understand where it comes from, it still saddens us. The reality is, our costs are significantly higher than major retailers and we don’t have the buying power they do. We’re not making large profits, we’re just doing our best to stay afloat.

We know everyone is doing it tough right now and the last thing we want to do is add to that pressure. That’s why we’ve chosen to introduce these price changes gradually, rather than all at once. We’re doing our best to ease the financial impact on our customers because we’re living through this same struggle too. It’s a stupidly hard time for so many people and we truly get it.

Your support means everything. Every dollar spent here helps keep our small town business running, locals employed and our community strong.

Thank you for continuing to shop local and standing by us during these challenging times.

The Glenreagh Timber Festival 2025 will not be going ahead.

We’re saddened to announce that due to the extreme weather events we've experienced, our designated parking area (paddock) has become too wet to safely prepare or accommodate the needs of the festival.

This area is a vital component to the overall success and experience of the event. Unfortunately, without a suitable and accessible parking space, we are unable to proceed as planned.

However, we’re already looking ahead to Saturday, 25th July 2026, when we’ll return bigger and better!

Our booking systems for vendors, exhibitors & entertainers will be opened within the next month for those who wish to roll over their applications & attend the 2026 festival.

We appreciate your support and understanding, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you all next year.

Thank you for being part of our festival community—stay tuned for updates, and we’ll see you in 2026!

Hi everyone,

We weren’t aware there was any confusion in the community, but we’ve since heard there are some rumours going around suggesting the local post office is closing as it was posted on social media. That is absolutely not the case.

We’re sorry if our Hubbed service has caused any misunderstanding, that was never our intention. We’d like to take a moment to explain what we offer and what Hubbed is, to help set the record straight.

Since 2023, we’ve proudly offered Hubbed deliveries as an added convenience for our community giving you another flexible option to collect parcels from a range of couriers, especially on weekends and outside regular business hours.

Hubbed is an independent parcel collection service that works with a variety of major couriers such as CouriersPlease, DHL, Aramex, FedEx and others. It does not include Australia Post or StarTrack.

To clarify, we are not affiliated with Australia Post and we have never claimed to be. We fully support the local post office and believe that having different services available only benefits the whole community by offering more choice and convenience.

We’re incredibly grateful for the support we’ve received so far and will continue doing our best to provide helpful, accessible services for everyone.
