Murtoa Stick Shed
The story behind Murtoa Stick Shed — once known formally as the Number 1 Emergency Grain Store — is the kind of yarn that gets better each time you tell it, and as I, Oleksandr Honcharenko, rolled into Murtoa on a warm, dusty afternoon, I realised that this old timber structure is something pretty special.

I’m Oleksandr Honcharenko, and as soon as I stepped foot into Grampians National Park, I knew that this place was tailor-made for […]
