25.01.2022 Any local community groups that fall into the mental health and wellbeing category, I would seriously suggest checking out these grants as it's a great way to access some funding. Head to www.auspost.com.au/grants for more info, or drop into the Tongala Post Office and see me.

24.01.2022 If you are in need of some lemons, I have had a totally awesome customer drop some off for people to help themselves to. Please be mindful of others though and only take what you need. I also have Silverbeet, celery and kale ready in the community garden if anyone needs some.

23.01.2022 Why not use this as an opportunity light up Tongala and support a great cause??

23.01.2022 This project has been months in the making... I can't wait to see the finished result...

22.01.2022 Stone's work socks are back in stock... just in time to keep your tootsies warm on such a cold day

22.01.2022 Are you struggling to find that perfect gift?? Then why not drop in and check out our range of great gift ideas??

22.01.2022 Are you a whiz in the kitchen or a budding home cook looking for some inspiration?? Then why not stop in store and check out our collection of cook books, or range of products from Random Harvest?? These are sure to cure the isolation blues.

21.01.2022 Meet our artists, Sophie and Davidson. And big thanks to Christina for the video, and for being such a big inspiration for doing what I do...

20.01.2022 After months of planning, the mural for the community garden is complete. To say that I am ecstatic with the result would be a massive understatement, it has come up better than I could ever have imagined. I want to give a massive shout out and thanks to Rohan Garth and the guys at Weweld Steelworx for donating the frames. It was a number of months ago that I contacted Rohan and told him about my idea for the mural but had no idea how to achieve it, and with his help we have... made it a success. I also want to thank Dale and the guys at Empire Signs Group for for getting the frames up and sheeted. A few weeks ago I rang Dale and told him about the idea, and that I had the frames however that was as far as I had gotten. With his help, within a short span of time the frames were concreted in the ground, finished off and ready for painting. The biggest thanks though needs to go to Sophie and Davidson. Without their imagination and talent this project would never have gotten anywhere. So thankyou both, you have blown me away with what you have created. If you are into art at all I suggest you take a look at their Instagram pages @art_by_sophletta and @bulatemporaria they both have portfolios of incredible artwork to their names. We are so lucky to have some seriously talented artists living in our community and I can't wait to see what the future holds. So come and enjoy the artwork and spread the word (and maybe munch on some snow peas whilst you are here )

19.01.2022 I have borrowed this from another Post Office's page, however I think that it rings true in all communities. #supportlocal https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=695150787698394&id=170521553494656

11.01.2022 I should know better than to use pasture hay for garden mulch, but it was free so can't complain. As least it looks good at the moment. #shorttermgainlongtermpain #workinghardernotsmarter #iwillhatemyselfin6months

10.01.2022 Another great business starting up in Tongala. Be sure to give the page a like and support local. https://www.facebook.com/Honey-Hen-110513334200893/

Over the next week or so we will have a comments/suggestions box at the Post Office and we would love for you to come in and fill out a card.

09.01.2022 As most people know, I love to support local producers. What you may not know is that I also love hard boiled lollies. I have recently found a way to combine these two things in the form of the Outback Rock Candy company. Produced locally in Kyabram, these little guys are one of my new favorite things and at $4.99 a jar, they are sure to 'rock' your world. Whilst you are at it, head over and give their page a like at - https://www.facebook.com/outbackrockcandy ... and get behind this great local business. #supportlocal #shoplocal #outbackrockcandy

07.01.2022 Has anyone been lucky enough to spot the two latest artworks to appear in Tongala over the weekend?? Created by the talented local artists Sophie Wilson and Davidson Lopes (check them out at @art_by_sophletta and @bulatemporaria on Instagram) they are sure to draw a crowd. With all of the talented artists we have in Tongala, as a small town I think that it is fair to say we are punching well above our weight in the arts scene and I can't wait to see what treasure will be created next.

07.01.2022 Due to factors outside of my control parcels for people that live in town will not be available until after 1pm today. Sorry for any inconvenience caused. PO box and RSD parcels will be available as normal.

06.01.2022 For those customers who have recently asked me why your parcel has taken an unusual route to get to you... here is your answer... https://www.theage.com.au//why-your-australia-post-parcels

06.01.2022 If you are looking for something to do today that's close to home, why not take a wander around town and have a look at the murals, grab a coffee from the Bakery or head to Tongala Farm Gate Produce (18-20 Campbell St, Tongala) and see what they have on offer??

06.01.2022 Nick and Kirstin donated this compost for use on the Community Herb Garden at the Post Office and it is a fantastic product, I would highly recommend giving it a try. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=110389537306846&id=110383297307470

05.01.2022 The super popular Stone's Socks are back in store. Warm, comfortable and manufactured right here in Australia, at $24.99 for a 3 pack how can you say no??

04.01.2022 Recent events have reminded me just how important it is to have someone to talk to if you are struggling. So if you are ever feeling down, or even feeling lonely, please remember that the door of the Post Office is always open if you ever need to talk.

03.01.2022 Spent some time in the community garden today spreading mulch, and I have to say it has come up a treat. A huge thankyou to Rich River Garden Mulch for the donation of the bags of Lucerne and Pea Straw Mulch. Also a big thanks to Min Nikkleson and the kids for helping with the weeding on Friday and to Mark Halden for helping spread the mulch today.... I also need to give a belated thanks to Kelly Weyland, Kerryn Martin, Lisa Slade, Christine Clifford and the many others who have donated plants. And a superstar thankyou to Sienna Johnstone for the upright herb planter. This garden truly is becoming a community effort.

02.01.2022 If anyone is after tickets for the Jones' Raffle I have a book at the Post Office.

01.01.2022 We have just had another delivery of the super popular, Australian made, Stone Socks land in store just in time for last minute Fathers Day gifts. Along with our other selection of goodies, I'm sure we have something in store that your Dad will love. (And yes, we do have Father's Day cards)

01.01.2022 Between the frost on the ground and all of these parcels, you would be forgiven for thinking that we were having a white Christmas

01.01.2022 Family Tree Thank you sooo much Tyler Stagg at the Tongala Post Office for inviting myself and Bula Temporária to participate in the community veggie garden ...project! And thank you to Rohan Garth for creating and donating the frames, he did a great job! This painting was a sentimental one that is dedicated to my grandparents because it was right there that our family story began. My grandma Naomi came from Eaglehawk to Tongala in 1959 to work at the Post office as a telephonist for just 3 weeks. In that short space of time she met my grandpa Charlie at the post office. They have been married since January 1961! Since that time our loving family has grown, they had 8 children, 18 grandchildren and now have 7 great-grandchildren! This painting represents roots, connection and family
