22.01.2022 Sass from RedBanksia has been one of our frequent shoppers since visiting us at the mill a few years ago. It often amazes us what he does with the Huon Pine we send him and it’s fantastic to see that hardly any goes to waste. I’m sure the finished products from this piece of pine will be truly beautiful. Give RedBanksia a like and check out his work. #australianmade #supportsmallbusiness

21.01.2022 I see the potential for a reindeer to be made out of this piece of Huon Pine! Perfect Christmas decoration! PLEASE NOTE: This piece is pick up from Strahan only, I don’t think he’d survive the courier trip very well! #huonpine #huonpinetasmania #morrisonshuonoinesawmill #morrisonssawmill #strahantasmania #destinationwestcoast

21.01.2022 Farm Stay Lowana looks like a great place for families to visit Enter this competition and you could win a great weekend away! #strahantasmania

21.01.2022 Keeping it nice and natural, no filters needed today! Just a quick COVID-19 update for us... We will be remaining closed until further notice, but please email us at if there is anything at all you are after. We’ve been quite busy with email or phone orders...thanks to you all for your continued support. Thumbs up Tassie for doing your part to flatten the curve but with restrictions lifting please remember to follow the guidelines. If we keep taking forward steps, small businesses like us can get back on track and do their thing!

20.01.2022 Have you heard of Tiger Track Stamps? Me either until a few months ago! And seeing as now is the perfect time for us Tassie locals to tour our own island we thought we would take part. Tasmanian artist Kaye Green has created unique art stamps for you to collect as you travel around Tasmania. The goal is for locals and visitors to Tassie to have an adventure collecting stamps from all sorts of Tasmanian venues. Hop online www.tigertrack.com.au to see how you can get your own special booklet and start collecting...perfect timing for kids (and adults!) to take part in during the upcoming school holidays. I can’t wait to start stamping

10.01.2022 Hi there Just a quick update... We will be keeping our gates closed for the month of July so that we can continue with our annual shut down and clean up plans. During this time we maintain and service our machinery, give the mill a really good spring clean and cut and rack timber using the saws and machinery that we’re not able to use whilst we have people wandering and browsing. We’ll also be busy starting to make our own stock, ready for when we re-open ... Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions, and don’t forget we can send you any goodies you might like. Stay safe and warm over Winter and we look forward to seeing your smiling faces very soon See more

10.01.2022 Here’s a great idea for you on this fantastically beaut day... Pop into The Coffee Shack for lunch and a martini (they’re the best ever!) and then wander down to the mill for a shop.

Be at the mill by 2.45pm, entry is free and everyone is welcome! See more

Thanks to all the Tassie families that visited us over the last couple of weeks, it’s been great talking to you all and picking up some travel tips on what we can do around our own state.

Keep your... eye on this page to see updates for our opening times for the remainder of October.
