Buderim Community Spirit

Keeping it alive and well, is up to you!

Much has been written and said about the town of Buderim and its extraordinary community. There is a real sense of belonging to the Mountain and a common desire to live up to its special nature, by those who choose to call Buderim home.

This is very different to the many urban developments which have grown around the Sunshine Coast and is possibly due to the heritage of 150 years of settlement and the succinct geographic boundary created by the plateau of Buderim Mountain. Indeed, as you move down and off the slopes, there is a clear disconnect from the “Buderim Community” as traditionally recognised.

The growing population and development has threatened this spirit. Typically we tend to destroy the very things we love about a place. It happens when too many people  flood in with little affinity for the values of those who have gone before and start “loving it to death”. 🙂

So if you love Buderim like we do, it is up to you to keep our unique community spirit alive! The good news is . . . there are many ways you can both enjoy and take part in your community. We have listed here a few key ideas so you can get the most and be the most in your community.

All community organisations are lacking volunteers, so be the community that you want!
