A hub for agriculture The Gippsland Agricultural Group (GAgG) has received funding to build the Gippsland Agricultural Centre. Located at the Gippsland Research Farm near Bairnsdale at the entry point to the East Gippsland Field Days site, this centre will be the hub of a thriving agricultural precinct. This project has been three years in the making, and received $984,000 from the Black Summer Bushfire Recovery Program. GAgG applied for a grant in late 2021 and were successful in 2022. Unfortunately, they were caught with the increase in price of steel thanks to COVID (inflation on costs were 30-35 per cent), hence the delay in building. The grant funds were no longer enough to cover the cost of the initial plans so they had to go back to the drawing board and make adjustments. There has been an immense amount of community and volunteer effort that has gone into this building, without that support GAgG would not have been able to accomplish as much as they have. Volunteer hours include: - The executive team volunteering all project management hours - Painting - Landscaping - Plumbing fit off It’s hoped this building will be a valuable asset to the community for many years to come.
