Wood Chop
What it's all about
All of Wollangarra’s cooking and heating needs are provided by wood fires and wood-powered combustion stoves and boilers. Each year, over the June long weekend, staff and volunteers from the wider community come together to source, split and store wood for the year to come.
During this event, volunteers and staff work together to fill the wood sheds, while also enjoying good food, good company and fun times!
