Corumbene has expanded over time and now cares for people in communities across southern Tasmania.
"In the Derwent Valley there are still some Oast houses that visitors can see. These large houses were specifically designed to dry/roast the hops in preparation for making beer. The Hops would be stacked 30-40cm deep on a drying floor, 5-6 feet from a furnace placed directly below. They would be dried for 9hrs then turned and dried for another 3. Drying was a skilful trade, too much drying changed the colour whereas under dried hops sweated in the bags and were ruined. Hops were then put in a cooling room for several weeks after drying. Once dried, hops can last several years.
"Hops prevents the beer from becoming sour, helps beer retain its head of froth and provides beer’s aroma, bitterness and taste. It was also a versatile plant because young shoots could be eaten like Asparagus and it will dye wool yellow. A strong cloth can also be also made from the stalks.

"In an evening sky, Bunjil flies across a crystal moon staring out over country, his great creation. The moon represents Merri Health's commitment to shine a light on Reconcilation at all times of the day and night"
'Grunge the Lumberjack, red by Su_G' in a 'Gaiter Face Mask' mockup (c/o Spoonflower & Roostery). [Design © Su Schaefer 2015]
While in my country (Australia) we're not (yet) required to wear face coverings to protect other people, I'm so pleased that my printer Spoonflower (& its product arm, Roostery) is making it easy for people to get face coverings that suit or express their personality. Something like the mockups shown here might be my 1st choice.
'Put a Mask on it' and 'Real Men wear face coverings' and other memes are going to hopefully make it easier to be apolitical about this important public health activity - something everyone can do to protect other people (even wusses like me who could never be a nurse...).
