With Member for Cootamundra, Steph Cooke and Minister for Agriculture, Adam Marshall on hand last Wednesday, the group's new covered pallet work area was officially opened.
"It's lovely to be back here and to have toured your facility again and just to see all of the work that you're up to," Ms Cooke said.
"You guys are back here in full swing and that's really, really great to see."
The Men's Shed received $23,000 funding in 2019 to construct the work space.
"There was just a shed on that paved area and you were all working outside and it's good now, you can work around the clock if you want, under lights and under cover," Ms Cooke said.
"Thanks for all the work that you're doing and the contribution that you make to this local community, it's really, really important.
"A lot of people rely on the support that you provide and of course, you're all here for each other as well which is also fantastic to see."
