About Us
Buderim Men’s Shed is a place for members to meet in a convivial atmosphere, gain knowledge and improve their health. It is a place where they can learn or teach a variety of professional and trade skills, or just relax in the company of other like-minded men. The Men’s Shed also provides opportunities for members to undertake personal, Men’s Shed or community-based projects.
Members’ interests span an extensive range of activities. They include woodwork, wood turning, toy making, metal work, small engine repairs, orchid growing, gardening, art and sketching, computing, discussion groups, health and welfare group, music and instrument playing and upholstery. More activities to keep pace with member’s needs and aspirations are being considered.

Positive impacts
The Australian Men’s Shed Association (AMSA) is the national service provider supporting more than 1,200 Men’s, Women’s and Community Sheds and is recognised as one of Australia’s largest male-based community development organisations.
AMSA was established in 2007 by a collection of Australian independent community-based Men’s Sheds to represent, support and promote the Men’s Shed movement. It was founded on the principle of sharing information between sheds and those communities wishing to establish and operate a Men’s Shed. It acts as a central hub for information exchange.
