For nearly 80 years, the Country Women’s Association has drawn crowds to its humble scone stall, but it’s the people behind the counter who keep visitors coming back.
Volunteers like Barb, the “Scone Queen”, and former NSW President Joy Beames aren’t just baking, they’re building connections.
Often underestimated as old-fashioned, the CWA is anything but.
Beyond the flour-dusted benches lies a history of advocacy from seatbelt laws to mental health reform.
What the CWA offers is not just food, but philosophy.
In a fast-moving, often fractured society, their message is disarmingly simple: kindness matters.
It’s a value baked into every scone and shared with every visitor.
