Leif Garrett’s biggest fan

From the other cider Burrawang
The closeness between Burrawang and its neighbouring Robertson is more than geographic.
There is a refreshing treat on offer at the Burrawang Hotel that ticks all the homegrown boxes.
Pomologist apple cider is made in Robertson from apples grown in Robertson.
The Southern Highland News editorial team is heading out into the community to get to know the readers and their stories.
We have chosen to set up at Burrawang Hotel on March 1 and we are keen to meet those from the village with a story to tell.
