The Big Cohuna Stockyard

We will also share any updates from other businesses/schools as we see them posted

❤️ IMPORTANT UPDATE – THE BIG COHUNA STOCKYARD ❤️
The Stockyard will remain closed today, as the health and safety of our customers, staff and community is always our first priority.
While our coffee machine and commercial ovens operate at high temperatures, we don’t want to take any chances with possible temperature fluctuations as water pressure changes. We’re also changing all filters in our coffee machine and commercial ovens, as they use water. Safe water is also essential for handwashing, cleaning and food preparation.
Our ice machine will need to be emptied, with all ice discarded, and thoroughly cleaned and sanitised. Our staff will make sure everything is in place before we open our doors.
Even if Coliban Water advises that we can reopen, we will wait for food health and safety advice before reopening.
Thank you for your patience, understanding and continued support. We’ll keep you updated—our community’s wellbeing comes first. 🤠❤️☕

❤️ IMPORTANT UPDATE – WILDBERRY CAFE ❤️

After speaking with the Shire, and following the directive from the Department of Health, we have been advised to remain closed for today.

Our coffee machine needs to reach boiling point before it can safely prepare coffee, and until this can be achieved, we must follow the Shire’s advice and keep our doors closed.

We want to make sure the water is safe to wash our hands and maintain cleanliness in the cafe.

At WildBerry, the safety of our customers will always come first. We are committed to serving safe food and beverages, and we sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Thank you for your patience, understanding and continued support. We truly appreciate our wonderful Cohuna community. ❤️

Stay safe, and we look forward to welcoming you back as soon as we can! 🍓☕
