CONTINUING A 135 YEAR TRADITION
Coburns Distillery A New & Exciting Addition To The Burrawang Landscape
March 2017
“Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whiskey is barely enough.” ― Mark Twain
Recently I spent an interesting morning chatting to Mark
Coburn a recent resident in Burrawang Station Lane whose
imagination and passion are intertwined in his plan to build a
single malt whisky distillery here.
His picturesque plot affords a very tranquil outlook over
the Wingecarribee Swamp which is a remnant of a late
glacial swamp. He is passionate about making his distillery
project reflect the natural beauty around him. This serene
landscape is a major feature in his ethos of making a whisky
that reflects the Southern Highlands and the characteristics
of the four seasons that we enjoy.
I learnt that to appreciate whisky one needs to know that
each whisky is an “expression” of its distillery. This defines
it characteristics and innate qualities that are determined by
the distiller. I suppose this translates to terms that we use
for appreciating wine, such as; bouquet, nose, profile etc.
Also I learnt that the malt is the grain that’s sprouted
(thereby converting the [unfermentable] starch in the grain
into [fermentable] sugar) and then toasted to prevent it
from growing into a plant. Malt makes a nice sweet whisky.
So essentially whisky is made from beer - so all you beer
drinkers are half way there to a good whisky.
After the distillation process the whisky is aged in American
oak barrels and this gives rise to the expression of “oaky”
as the taste is influenced by aging in an oak cask and this
implies a woody, spicy, astringent character.
Coburns is still in its nascent stage of development; there is
a long way to go before we see any physical evidence of the
burgeoning distillery and its amazing workings. However,
Mark has been hard at work for a number of years gathering
ideas, refining the concept, speaking to the “go to people”
in the industry, making broad brush decisions to get the big
picture right before the major works commence.

“There is no bad whisky. There are only some whiskys that aren’t as good as
others.” ― Raymond Chandler
Our conversation shed light on the mysteries of whisky and many of the myths
that surround this famous amber liquid.
Myth: Whisky and bourbon are different things
Whisky is the umbrella, generic, term for all spirits under its banner. Bourbon,
Rye, Canadian, Irish, Scotch, and Sour Mash are all examples of different
types of whisky. They are all whisky, and they are all a little different.
Myth: Scotch is peaty because of the peaty water
Only some scotch is smoky. Mainly with Islay malts (Islay being the area
of Scotland) the barley is dried over a peat fire, the smoke of which getting
infused into the barley malt. How smoky depends on how long the barley is left
in the peat smoke. It has nothing to do with the tannins in the water.
Myth: Single Malt” means it all comes from the same barrel:
Another common misconception is that “single malt” means that all the whisky
in the bottle came from just one cask. This confuses the term with “single cask”
or “single barrel.” Instead, “single malt” means the whisky is a) all malt whisky
and b) all comes from the same distillery.
Myth: Whisky ages in a bottle and old bottles are valuable.
Unlike wine, whisky does not age in a bottle. If you have a bottle with ‘’12 Years
Old’’ sign, even if you keep it for 50 years it will still remain as a 12-year old
whisky. It has a very low chance of being valuable unless it is a limited edition.
Myth: Whisky is only made in Scotland
Scotch is only made in Scotland but whisky is produced in lots of countries,
as many as 20 or so. Nowadays Scotland, America, India, Ireland, Canada
and Japan are the countries producing whisky the most. Also there are lots of
great whiskies offering wide variety of tastes produced in different distilleries
all around the world from France to Austria, Australia to Taiwan. In fact, some
whiskies from Japan, Taiwan and Tasmania have been awarded ‘’the best
whisky of the world’’ in the last 5 years. Whisky had also been produced in
Turkey up until 2000’s.
“A fine single malt whisky, of course, is purely medicinal - it cures all manner of
ailments one may care to imagine.”
Alex Morritt, Impromptu Scribe
Mark’s vision is that Coburns will become a must visit destination for the
residents of the Southern Highlands and visitors from far and wide. He wants
everyone to feel pride and ownership that this beautiful landscape will have
a well-designed and architecturally impressive building that is sympatric to its
location while the artisans are producing a range of quality crafted whiskies.

We all owe him a big vote of thanks for
his efforts – rain, hail or snow our man
Russ has delivered your Herald. So I am
calling for a number of people to help if
they can with deliveries every quarter.

Also announcing another retirement
– Crystal Balls. After the last edition,
Crystal read in her tea leaves the winning
lotto numbers and is now sunning herself
on the Riviera, drinking dry martinis and
eating foie gras while gazing at the stars
over the Med. Thanks Crystal for all your
insightful contributions.
I would like to acknowledge the valuable
support that our paid advertisers make
in helping with the costs of printing the

Burrawang Wildes Meadow Progress Association Update
What is the Point of the Progress Association?
I want to begin my first message as President of the Progress Association by thanking Alex Campbell for his enthusiasm
and efforts over the last couple of years. Late last year Alex was offered an exciting career opportunity in the Middle East
based in Bahrain and, after some serious reflection decided to accept it. We all wish him and Jan well and look forward to
their return in a couple of years.
I thank the Committee of the Progress Association for elevating me to the position of President and thank Grant Sherborne
sincerely for stepping into the Vice-President slot.
One of the questions that we are often asked is “What is the purpose of the Progress Association?” Indeed, its one that we
often ask ourselves. To answer this, we can go back to its original formation in 2000, when the stated purpose of the PA
was defined to be:
a) To ensure that progress and development in the local area should maintain the present rural, aesthetic and historical
character of the Burrawang Wildes Meadow area, and
b) To ensure that communication between the residents and those authorities affecting our villages should be properly
maintained.
I believe that this remains our core purpose and we strive to do it as effectively as we can.
One of the key tools in this effort is the production of the Burrawang Herald which remains a valued source information on
local history and events, although technology based tools are now being used effectively to disseminate current information
in a timely manner.
On occasion that involves some advocacy on behalf of the village as we were able to accelerate the renovation of the
children’s playground opposite the café and to achieve a significant expansion of the scope of the work now planned. The
work will be done in two phases, with the first scheduled to commence in March. The second phase will require some
additional funds and we are in the process of applying for grants to allow implementation of the whole plan.
We meet twice a year with the General Manager of the Council and her Deputy GMs and we take these opportunities to
raise the issues within Council’s responsibility that are of concern to our members and residents of the local community. I
take this opportunity to remind you of this so that you can identify concerns and frustrations with local services to us and we
may be able to get some progress.
One area of potential vulnerability is the degree to which we can be considered a representative organisation. The
Burrawang Herald has a circulation of about 500 while membership of the PA is static at about 75-80 families. Clearly there
is a big gap in these numbers and we can be more effective if we have the support of more of you.
So --- if you were considering joining the PA but haven’t acted on it --- please do so. If you are disinclined to join the PA for
any reason ----- please let me know. We are keen to be useful and have access to some of the decision makers. So, if you
have suggestions about how we might do a better job – let us have them. [email protected]
Warm Regards
Paul Shanahan President, BWM Progress Association

Burrawang Rural Fire Brigade
Gets A New Dog The Burrawang Brigade has recently welcomed a new member of the crew – Rover. Rover is a new system for
notifying brigade members of incidents and allows each
individual to immediately indicate whether they are able
to respond or not. Further, the system tracks those who
are responding in real time so the rest of the crew can see
how far away from the station they are. This system will
greatly improve the efficiency of our response to incidents
and also dramatically cut down on forlorn members
wistfully looking at the empty spot where the truck was
parked just moments before. Huge thanks to Bruce
Waters who has led us into this brave new world.
Speaking of brave, the fearless Alex Campbell has
been farewelled from the brigade as he sets off for new
adventures in Bahrain. Enquiries have been made as to
the process for transferring his membership to the local
fire service in Manama. We wish him and Jan well and
look forward to following their adventures on Facebook.
You know what else is good to follow on Facebook? That’s
right – Burrawang Rural Fire Brigade. Just search for
us and like the page to be kept up to date with local fire
conditions, hints and tips to keep safe and other general
fire matters. Huge thanks to brigade member Mark
Compton, who has taken over the administration of the
page. It is in far safer hand with Mark than many other
members of the brigade who I will choose not to mention
(Yes – I’m talking about Munro).
Recently the brigade has responded to a wide range of
incidents, from shed fires to lightning strikes to suspicious
vehicles. Thankfully, we haven’t had to deal with any
major bush fires so far this season. Fingers are crossed
for the months ahead.
Remember, training takes place on Wednesday evenings
at 7.30. If you would like to learn more about joining or
would just like to see what we get up to, please feel free to
drop by.
We would also like to invite the community to our AGM. It
will be held at the shed on Wednesday March 1st 2017 at
7.30pm All are welcome.
Thank you for your ongoing support of the Burrawang
RFB.
The End of an Era
The Burrawang Pub has been sold. After 25 years at the
helm Ed, Julie and Family are stepping back.
We would like to thank our many patrons and friends both
present and past who have supported us over the years. We
have many great memories to keep forever.
I would also like to acknowledge all of our staff, both past
and present. Special mentions must go to Donna, Allison,
Kylie, Peter and Sally for their loyalty and longevity of
service. Thanks you to all the young guys and girls from
local families who started their working life with us and have
gone onto bigger and brighter things in their lives/careers/
families and to our current employees for their continued
service.
In continuing this great journey we will still be in the village
and running our B&B.
We wish the new owners and operators all the best and
feel the hotel is in good hands to take it to the next level, to
which all in the village and surrounding areas will benefit
The Woolfrey family wish to extend an open invitation
together with the Dean family, to farewell the old and
welcome the new, with drinks and snacks, on Sunday
19th March 5pm to 9pm.

Principal - Michelle Laval
News from Burrawang Public School
We are very excited to once again
have been accepted into the combined
recorder ensemble that will play at the
Sydney Opera House on Wednesday
6th September. Our very own Georgie
(pictured) has also been successful in
gaining a place in the combined string
ensemble, playing her violin at the
same concert.
Great work Georgie!
We are always looking for volunteers to help in our school in a variety of activities. Last year we
were very grateful for the help of some of our local community with our sewing projects. This year,
we are especially looking for anyone who may have a green thumb who could come in and help us in
our vegetable gardens. If you are interested in helping in our garden (or in the classroom) – please
contact the school (48864261)
What our students think of learning at Burrawang Public School
At the end of 2016, we asked our students some questions
about our school to give us some feedback on how we can
improve. Here are some of the responses:-
• The school is the best school in the world.
• I love this school because I have lots of friends and the
teachers are very nice.
• I’ve loved learning and completing goals that I’ve
worked towards. Mr Bourne has made a HUGE impact
in my learning. He’s a keeper. :) Thank you teachers for
everything, it’s been great getting to know all of you guys!!
Best of Luck for the future.
• Burrawang is an amazing school. Everywhere we go
people comment on how well behaved and smart we
are. I really enjoy belonging to this school and I am full of
pride every time I enter the school gates and every time
I go on excursions. I leave the school with some new
knowledge in my brain just waiting to be used. Next year
I hope we can go to some more educational camps and
excursions. I love the kind and loving staff we have. I love
the school.
• Burrawang Helps Me Think Positive And Helps Me Think
More
• I look forward to school every day!
• I think it is an awesome school that strives to be at its
best by using our learning qualities and many other
qualities. I also love how we have lots of fun ways to work
in the classroom for example maths outside. I also like
how we have lots of different interesting activities that we
do for example genius hour, dancing and gymnastics.
• I feel as if students in particular have gained control over
physical and verbal communication with all the effective
learner qualities and the discipline. I feel more confident
in all areas. I think that I’ve become more aware of
making sure that I complete all the effective learner
qualities and my goals. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE SCHOOL!
• I think that many of these new initiatives have benefited
me as well as the school. I love the many different ways
we can communicate and show support to each other in
our learning.
We would like to welcome our
new students to Burrawang Public
School. A big welcome to our new
Kindergarten students, Ruby and
Madeleine. We also welcome Lacey
who is joining our 3-6 class and
William who is joining our K-2 class.

Burrawang P&C
If C = 350 – 3 x 15 and P = (√16 + 13) x 100 + 3 x 4,
then P + C = ?
Go on – have a crack at solving it. I’ll wait right here…
Did you get it or give up? Anyway, school’s back for another
year which means so is the P&C. We’re looking forward to
getting stuck in to our fundraising to allow us to continue to
help support the kids and the school in as many ways as we
can.
Good news for those who have been following along, the
Department has finally given us the go-ahead to push
forward with the outdoor kitchen. This is going to be such a
great resource for Burrawang kids for many years to come.
Many thanks to all the parents past and present who have
put some much effort into raising the funds that will allow us
to build the best facility we can.
Many thanks for everyone’s support of our wonderful little
school. We really are incredibly lucky to have it in the
village.
All the best for 2017,
Rob Macdonald
P&C President.

Burrawang Group Meditation
If you have ever meditated you will know the benefits (and
challenges) of stilling your mind. Group meditation is
powerful - you gain from both the discipline and collective
stillness of the group. A handful of locals have been
meditating each Monday 3:00 – 3:45pm in the Burrawang
School of Arts hall. The group is self-directed, there is no
leadership or guidance so it is suited to people who know
the basics of meditation and would enjoy the benefits of
meditating in a group. We usually have a flower or two
as an object of focus but are open to other suggestions or
refinements.
If you would like to know more please call Sally on
0418628712 or just come along on a Monday afternoon.
The participants have been known to re-ground
themselves by enjoying afternoon tea at the Burrawang
Café after the session.

BOOK REVIEW- BY PJW
Mark Lawson is a British novelist and journalist.
His previous novel The Deaths (2013) was
an entertaining murder mystery, constructed
around a satire of the new Tory moneyed
class, hedge fund managers and lawyers,
living in a picturesque village outside London,
preoccupied with their exotic weekend
getaways to Morocco, their designer kitchens
and the latest Range Rover. For sixteen years
Lawson was also host of an Arts program
on BBC radio until, in 2014, he was summarily sacked
for “bullying”. As a freelance on contract rather than a
permanent employee, he had no access to a formal process
and was not given any details of the allegations against
him (he was shown a document listing vague, anonymous
complaints along the lines of “he once criticised me after a
recording” that without any date or name it was impossible
for him to refute).
At first, embarrassed and shamed by the attendant publicity,
he retreated to his farmhouse in Northamptonshire; but rage
and bitterness at his treatment have erupted in his most
recent novel The Allegations (2016).
It is the story of two friends, history professors at a provincial
university; one, a minor celebrity who presents popular
history programs on television, is charged with historical
sexual offences; the other, a committed but cynical teacher,
is accused of bullying his students.
The first thread, which traverses much the same ground as
National Treasure, the recent BBC drama starring Robbie
Coltrane, is less successful; it is darker and turns on what
might or might not have happened between lovers decades
in the past. Lawson’s efforts to be fair and accommodate
changing sexual attitudes rather dulls this material.
However, the other thread is fueled by
Lawson’s own incandescent anger and
frustration. This academic declines the offer of
a generous redundancy package and access
to the university’s resources for his future
research to contest the allegations against him.
He is plunged into an Orwellian world where
challenging or criticising his students (some of
whom seem barely literate) constitutes bullying,
and irony is uncomprehended.
Anyone who has worked in the public service or
a large bureaucracy will recognise the suavely
menacing apparatchiks of the university’s “Department of
Workplace Harmony”, for whom students are “consumers”
whose support is required to promote the university and its
“services” in the marketplace.
Lawson is scathing about the degradation of language and
logic as universities become hostage to the sensitivities
of students. I particularly liked this exchange between the
historian and his inquisitor, who asks “Dr Pimm, do you
accept that you could be intellectually intimidating?”
“Wouldn’t that be an extraordinary accusation in a
university?” he replies.
Lawson’s novel, while flawed, is passionate; it speaks
angrily to the modern world in which every opinion and
grievance, however uninformed or foolish, must be accorded
equal weight. Of course, as a novel, rather than a tweet or a
post, Lawson’s message is unlikely to reach that audience
who most needs to hear it.
(Both books are available from Wingecarribee Library, Moss
Vale branch.)

Burrawang Wildes Meadow 6. Speed Limit on Wildes Meadow Road. RMS have advised that the current speed limit meets their criteria and
Wingecarribee Shire Council Meeting Update
Every six months members of the BWMPA meet with the
General Manager of Wingecarribee Shire Council and her
Deputy General Managers to discuss issues of interest to
the Progress Association which fall within Council’s area of
responsibility.
The last meeting was held on 19 January 2017 and we
raised 10 items with Council officers as follows:
1. Burrawang Playground: Council has previously
undertaken the planning and design of a major upgrade to
the playground and has agreed to fund the first stage of
the work. Council advised that construction is planned to
commence in March 2017.
2. Hoddle Street trees in conflict with powerlines. Some of
the elected councillors had previously shown a keen interest
in this planned work and several of them inspected the site
on 9 November 2016. Council officers undertook to provide
us an update within the month.
3. Asphalt Surface Hoddle Street. The contractor is
being pursued by Council to remedy the situation and a
few rectification works have previously been done. The
contractor is expected back on site during the week of 23
January (this week) to place additional gravel on the soft
and exposed areas.
4. Reconstruction of Church Street. Major improvement
works for Church Street have been identified but it remains
unclear whether this is of sufficient priority to be funded in
the coming financial year. The process for prioritising next
years plans is currently under way and we can expect to
know whether this project will be funded when Council puts
is expenditure plan on public exhibition in late April or early
May. It will be on exhibition for 28 days and Council will
receive public submissions prior to giving final approval to
the plan.
5. Intersection of Church Street with Illawarra Highway.
Council has made representations on our behalf to the
Department of Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) to
improve the safety of this corner by installing a right turn
lane or providing double barrier lines on the Illawarra
Highway on the approach to Church Street. RMS has
advised that the construction of a right turn lane has been
identified in their programme but is not of a sufficiently high
priority to receive funding this year. RMS further advises
that the line marking on Illawarra Why meets their standards
they will make no changes.
7. Roadside Fallen Trees. A number of trees that fell
across roads during the storms in the middle of last year
were cleared to the roadside by council emergency crews.
The debris remains by the roadside. Council will not
be removing this debris as they consider the cost to be
prohibitive in the current circumstances.
8. Dog Waste. We have approached Council to see if
they are willing to support an initiative of the BWMPA to
address the prevalence of dog droppings in the public areas
of Burrawang. The Council officers are supportive and will
provide sample materials for a campaign and will consider
additional assistance once we have firmed up our plans.
9. Chlorine Odour in the Water Supply. Council provided
details of the level of Chlorine found in the Burrawang
supply for the last two years. There was disagreement
as to whether these levels are appropriate and the matter
was held over pending a more detailed discussion with the
Shire’s manager of water and sewerage. This discussion
has not yet occurred.
10. Burrawang Cemetry. The maintenance plan for the
Burrawang Cemetery calls for mowing of the cleared areas
fortnightly in summer and monthly in winter. The remaining
uncleared area (approx. 80% of the area) is slashed every
few years. Council are receptive to any representations we
have to make with respect to care of the cemetery.
In addition to the items we raised, Council alerted us to
plans initiated by the NSW Government to require Councils
to collect an Emergency Services Levy along with their
rates. This is meant to provide funding for SES, RFS etc.
This is yet to be implemented and details are as yet unclear.
Council officers stressed that Local Government was not
consulted in the formulation of the plans and none of the
money collected will remain with the Council. It is to be
passed through to the State Government.
Our next meeting with the Council officers will be in June or
July and if issues arise that you consider we should raise
with them, please let me know. In addition, if you have any
comments or questions about the matters described above I
would be happy to try and answer them.

BURRAWANG SCHOOL OF ARTS
SATURDAY 27th May 2017 - 9.00am to 12 noon
This year the Warner Family will host their 22nd annual
fundraiser for the Cancer Council Australia’s Biggest
Morning Tea.
The funds raised from the Morning Tea help and support
thousands of Australians affected by Cancer, in the following
area: vital work in cancer research, health services,
prevention programs and support services.
Last year through the generosity of the community the
Burrawang Morning Tea raised $13,975.00 and over the
past 21 years has raised $103927.60
The Warner family are forever grateful and sincerely
appreciate the support and help they have received over the
past 21 years in making each morning tea such a success.
We feel that this is one way that we can help contribute to
ensure families have support and services during a time that
we know support is welcomed.
As a community we all have been touched by cancer in
some way, and this is a time to demonstrate solidarity and
give to those who we hope can be cured. The money raised
can help minimise the risk and eradicate this awful disease.
Then hopefully cancer will be history.
Let’s make this year Burrawang’s Biggest Morning Tea on
Saturday 27th May, an outstanding success.
We look forward to seeing you all, at one of the biggest
morning teas held in the region. Come and enjoy a
scrumptious morning tea, great raffle prizes, trading table,
jams and pickles, lucky door prizes and most importantly a
friendly and enjoyable time to be had by all who attend.
St David’s Burrawang
Happy New Year to you all!
Let me tell you about a new experience that I’ve tried
recently - swimming in creeks and rivers. Now to be honest
I’ve found it a little tough at first. I’m an ocean swimmer and
surfer, and I love to see the bottom. Swimming in creeks
and rivers, well they’re a bit “icky,” if that’s a word. But I’m
growing to love it. The water is warm, the rapids feel great
and the scenery is beautiful. We have some wonderful and
spectacular creeks and rivers in the Highlands to swim in.
They are such a blessing and gift from God.
Can I suggest another, possibly new, experience for you
to try this New Year? Try getting to know Jesus Christ.
Saying Jesus is an ‘experience’ really undersells Jesus and
his words in the Bible, but I think you know what I mean.
Why not try two things as you get to know Jesus? Grab a
copy of a Bible, if you don’t have one get in touch with me
and I’ll give you one, and read the book of Mark, which is
a biography of Jesus. It’s only got 16 chapters, you can
probably read it in a couples hours. Second, why not join
some others who also want to get to know Jesus and come
along to St David’s at Burrawang? We meet on the third
Sunday of each month at 4.30pm. It’s a relaxed time of

Burrawang Easter Market – For Residents
The organisation of the Burrawang Easter Market is well
underway. Stalls are being booked, traffic plans are being
finalised and Valium is being sourced in great quantities.
As there are quite a few new residents in the village I
thought I’d just take the time to outline some of the changes
that take place on the day so people can plan ahead if
needs be.
Hoddle Street between Church and Region Streets is
closed for the day, as is Crown street between Dale and
Hoddle. In order for the stalls to have space to set up on
theses roads, we do ask that no cars are left on the street
the night before.
Additionally, due to the large numbers of visitors to the
markets, traffic changes will be in place on the day. Keep an
eye out in your letterbox a few weeks out for confirmation
of the exact changes – we’ll also post these via Facebook.
It should be noted though, that if you live in the village and
are inviting guests for the day they will more than likely
have varying degrees of difficulty accessing your house by
car on Easter Saturday. As such, it’s probably best to get
all the guests for your wedding, bar mitzvah or annual 500
tournament to arrive the night before to avoid any issues. Of
course, people can always park in one of the parking areas
and proceed by foot to enjoy your hospitality.
We realise that the markets could not continue without the
support of the Burrawang community and thank you for your
understanding. We hope you will enjoy the great day that it
is.

Many thanks,

Russell’s Ramblings March 2017
Another Australia Day has come and gone, and another
batch of Honours has been awarded covering a wide
range of activities.
Locally some fine people have been recognised for their
great contribution to the community; I congratulate them
on their achievements.
However I have reservations about the logic behind
some awards that were handed out in other areas. I
note the girls in the Rugby 7s at the Olympics have
all been honoured. Winning this event was a fantastic
achievement, but is Rugby7s really an Olympic sport?
Is a one off performance like this to be seen as equal to
the lifetime achievement of our scientists, educators, and
others who dedicate their lives to the betterment of the
entire community?
Personally, I don’t think so.
To my mind the real heroes of Australia are those who
devote their time and energy to charities and other non for
profit organisations to raise money and positive assistance
to those in genuine need.
They don’t seek honours, just a bit of recognition now
and then. Their reward is the satisfaction of knowing they
are helping others in times of need, and in doing so, they
promote community spirit which is beneficial to everyone.
Voluntary contributions to the community bring their own
rewards.
On a different note, it is now necessary for others to take
on the delivery of the Herald in the areas that I have been
covering - Wildes Meadow and nearby areas.

Burrawang School of Arts
Since the last issue of the Herald, we have only had one event at the School of Arts - the Christmas party.
This time we introduced a new addition to the party
- Christmas carols. To say it was received with
acclamation is an understatement.
Thanks to our Mr Music, Alex Pope, and our Master
of Ceremonies, Dwight Dowda, it was an enormous
success, and all who attended agreed that 2017
should be bigger and better. Numbers, particularly
of the younger generation were most pleasing, and
we are very grateful for the enthusiastic support from
Michelle Laval (Burrawang Public School) and all the
kids and their parents who attended.
By the time this issue is published, the Abba Tribute
Concert will have happened, so there will be a report
on that in the second Herald for the year.

The Burrawang Kitchen Anne Geddes
SUMMERTIME……. AND THE LIVIN’ IS EASY!!!!
As I write this article, the thermometer has hit a high 35°C. Who wants to cook
in this heat, let alone eat anything that is hot and spicy?
In this languid heat, one of the most important things is NOT to be standing over
a hot stove. Swimming at the beach; reading under the shade of a large tree;
enjoying an aperitif with friends or just sitting under a fan watching the tennis are
the things we should be indulging in!!
It cannot be stressed enough how important it is to keep hydrated in the heat.
We obtain about 20 – 30% of our total fluid intake from the foods we eat. As long
as we drink throughout the day, when we are thirsty and more often if we are
exercising, then we should be okay. However, during really hot summer days, we
really need to increase our intake of water, as we are perspiring so much more.
I was reminded today, that it is such a ‘Gen Y’ thing to always have a bottle of
water with you. For us ‘Baby Boomers’ we are not accustomed to carrying a
water bottle with us everywhere we go, making it slightly more difficult to take in
the required 1 – 2 litres of water per day. But it is imperative to keep hydrated –
and, although tea and coffee do count slightly, they are also diuretics.
Let’s get back to what we should be eating …..
If we take the Chinese point of view, we should eat foods that are cooling in terms
of Chinese medicine –
• Hot rice with cooling mung beans
• Chicken and watermelon salad with yoghurt dressing
• Stir-fried cucumbers with blue swimmer crab
•
If it is very hot, our bodies can acquire heat and this leads to drying out of the
skin, lack of body fluid and constipation. Therefore if we eat more ‘cooling’ foods
it can balance the body - Yin and Yang.
Most of the foodstuffs that are in season tend to be classified as ‘Cooling Foods’.
For us in Australia, we are sublimely lucky to have an abundance of fresh fruit
and vegetables to cool and check the balance of our bodies.
Crisp, fresh vegetables eaten raw in salads with poached chicken or lightly
sautéed Salmon are always winners. Try mixing fresh herbs like Basil or
Coriander through your salads to give extra crunch and taste. Adding nuts
or seeds to your dishes will enhance flavour and also boost your protein and
antioxidant intake.

Desserts are a snap in summer – Fresh strawberries and
raspberries mixed with fresh lime juice and some Chobani
Greek Yoghurt is just lovely.
Just on the subject of yoghurts, you might be interested to
know a little bit about Chobani Yoghurt. After reading this
article several months ago, it is my ’go to’ yoghurt – hope
you agree!!
While tidying up his desk back in 2005, our Founder and
CEO, Hamdi Ulukaya, stumbled upon a classified ad for
a yogurt plant recently closed down by Kraft. After initially
throwing the ad away, Hamdi listened to his gut, fished it
out of the trash and went to see it that day. He decided to
buy the plant on the spot, and went to work on perfecting
the recipe for Chobani based on his belief that everyone,
regardless of income or location, deserved access to
delicious, high-quality yogurt. The first cup of CHO finally
hit shelves 18 months later and has since grown to become
America’s #1 yogurt.
Chobani is now made in Australia at their Dandenong South
Plant in Victoria using whole Australian milk from local
farmers. Chobani has the following qualities …
• no preservatives. no artificial colours or flavours.
• fat-free and low-fat varieties
• two times more protein per serving than regular yogurt.
• includes 5 live & active cultures, including 3 probiotics.
• source of calcium.
• safe for those with corn, nut, and soy allergies.
• gluten-free and kosher-certified.
• suitable for vegetarians.
CHOBANI FOUNDATION
The Chobani Foundation was built on the principles of
empowering positive, sustainable change locally, regionally
and globally. We believe in doing business the right and
responsible way, so we give a portion of our profits to
charity through the Chobani Foundation.

Railway Street Fresh Food & Produce Market – Elizabeth Varley
Fresh, organic, home grown, made by hand, garden fresh, pure and wholesome,
these were words that were used describe the food that we ate in years past -
these have been replaced by: packaged, refined, processed, purified, treated,
chemically enhanced and biologically engineered.
How would you like to go back to the days when shopping for your food you could
speak to the grower, producer and artisan and be able to pick up the produce and
test its freshness and quality? Moss Vale has a new Growers Market where the
quality and freshness of the produce are the stars of the show.
You will find locally grown aquaponic & certified organic produce, preserves
made from local produce, Curly’s Compost, sourdough bread, patisserie-style
pies and quiches, locally propagated seedlings and food plants grown by the
Community Garden, local wines, fish, free-range eggs, Snax-on-Trax coffee van
with delicious home-baked cakes & biscuits, Japanese pancakes and more. Be
entertained by local musicians as you shop.
Kate Cretney is the Market Manager and recently, over a cup of coffee, we
chatted about the new and exciting development of having wonderful fresh
produce on our door step at Moss Vale. In many parts of the world such as
Europe and Asia it is a given that you can go to the food market and buy
wonderful fresh produce that has been grown locally and sold by the grower
themselves.
The ethos behind the Railway Street Fresh Food & Produce Market is that the
produce is described as “fair food”. Fair Food is produce grown and harvested
on farms participating in partnership among farmers and farmworkers, which
ensures humane wages and working conditions for the workers who pick fruit and
vegetables and the produce is grown in a sustainable way..
Like most countries, Australia has a long tradition of a backyard veggie patch
and orchard, yet this dwindled significantly with the rise of the supermarkets and
fast food in the post-war era. Now backyard food growing is returning strongly,
with recent surveys suggesting over 50% of adults are involved. Many are also
involved in community food production, especially community gardens and school
kitchen gardens, which have expanded rapidly since the 1990s.
The unique aspect of this market is that each of us can participate as they offer
a sales opportunity where one off produce can be displayed and sold on an
aggregate table along with other one off producers. So if you have a surplus
of fruit, veg, herbs, flowers etc make a call and join the fresh food market
movement. Kate 0468 331 738 she is keen to chat to you or email katecretney@
hotmail.com Also weekly updates www.facebook.com/OntheGrow
Come and join us and help support our local growers to produce seasonal
fresh food through sustainable farming methods.
Every Thursday from 3pm till 6pm on the Greens - Cnr Railway & Spring
Streets, Moss Vale

A Message from the Mayor
Australia Day is without doubt a
very special day and it’s one of our
most important days of the year. On
Australia Day we all take great pride
in being Australian.
Australia Day prompts us to reflect on our nation’s history; it
also prompts us to look forward to the future. I believe that
Australia Day allows us to pause and re-commit to making
Australia an even better place for future generations.
Australia Day reminds us to be thankful for our rich
Aboriginal heritage, diversity, flora and fauna and it provides
us with an opportunity to reflect on what we have achieved
and what we can be proud of in our great nation.
Here in historic Berrima, we come together to celebrate not
only this incredible country, but our beautiful Shire and our
unique residents.
Indeed one of the many highlights of today will be the
announcement of our Shire’s Australia Day Citizen Award
recipients.
We are indeed very lucky to have such dedicated,
hardworking and compassionate people residing amongst
us and our Shire is without doubt a better place as a result
of their selfless contributions.
Another highlight will be the welcome we give to our newest
citizens who will take the pledge of commitment as a citizen
of the Commonwealth of Australia.
I would personally thank our Australia Day Ambassador, Mr
Bob Turner. Over the years we have had many wonderful
Ambassadors join us for our local celebrations. Today is no
exception as we’re joined by one of Australia’s pre-eminent
basketball coaches and sports administrators.
Bob himself immigrated to Australia over 40 years ago to
originally play basketball fortunately for us - he decided to
stay on.
I’m sure Bob has many fond memories from his own
Citizenship Ceremony. On behalf of Wingecarribee Shire
Council, I extend a warm Australia Day welcome to each
and every one of you and encourage you all to ‘Celebrate
what’s great’ about this land we call home.
Happy Australia Day Clr Ken Halstead – Mayor

MESSAGE FROM THE NSW EMERGENCY SERVICES LEVY INSURANCE MONITOR
The way the NSW Government funds the Emergency Services agencies is
changing-there will no longer be a levy on your insurance policy.
Currently, individuals and businesses insuring property in NSW contribute to
the Emergency Services Levy as part of their insurance premiums. This levy
supports the work of Fire and Rescue NSW, the NSW Rural Fire Service and
the NSW State Emergency Service. These vital community services help
NSW residents and businesses protect their property from fire, flood, storms
and other natural disasters.
Your current Emergency Services Levy will be detailed on your insurance
policy statement.
For policies commencing from 1 July 2017, the NSW Government intends that
the Emergency Services Levy will no longer be included as part of the cost of
your property insurance. This means that insurance premiums will be lower than
would otherwise be the case.
The NSW Government appointed Professor Allan Fels AO and Professor David
Cousins AM as the Emergency Services Levy Insurance Monitor and Deputy
Monitor, respectively, to head an independent agency overseeing the removal of
the Emergency Services Levy. The Monitor aims to ensure that any cost savings
arising from the removal of the Emergency Services Levy are passed on in full.
From 2017-18, funding for the emergency services agencies will be collected
alongside local council rates. Councils will clearly show the new levy as a
separate item on your council rates notice. This change in the method of
collecting funding for those agencies is intended to ensure all property owners
contribute their fair share to the cost of emergency services, rather than only
those choosing to insure their property. The Government has indicated this
change will not reduce the funds available to the emergency services agencies.
If you would like further information on the insurance side of Emergency Services Levy Reform and the removal of the ESL you can contact the Monitor on Ph:1300 607 723, [email protected],
or www. eslinsurancemonitor.nsw.gov.au.
If you require further Information about the property levy side of Emergency
Services Levy Reform and the new ESPL please email your enquiries to
