About our shed
About Us
The High Country Men's Shed was officially opened in July 2012. The High Country Men's Shed is located in Omeo in East Gippsland's High Country. It is an informal space in which any interested men of the community can come together to share knowledge and technical skills, work on projects (individual or community) or have a cuppa and a yarn with other like minded shedders. Our men's shed coordinator and dedicated volunteers ensure that the shed is made available on a regular weekly basis. There is no membership fee at the High country men's shed and the membership is valid from 1st August 2018 til 31st June 2023. To join, complete the High Country Men's Shed 'Membership Registration' form and return to Omeo District Health Reception. Visitors are welcome. <strong< strong="">The High Country Men's Shed welcomes all members of the public to visit us and have a cuppa and a chat.</strong<>

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.
