About our shed
About Us
Texas Men's Shed Inc is a small shed of approx 10 members on the Queensland/NSW border.
The first few years of operation have mainly been spent getting the shed liveable. Our local Council has kindly let us use the shed rent and electricity free. The shed is located behind the football fields and was the old dressing shed. One wall was nearly falling down, the roof leaked and the whole place was derelict and unused for many many years. Now it is a comfortable well appointed shed for our local men to gather and we are very proud of all we have achieved.

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.
