Our farm store is located in a 19th century dairy
barn.
Over the years it has housed chickens, beef cows, pigs,
sheep, goats, horses, and ponies.
In 1975, we decided that we needed a place to sell our
produce and converted the barn to a store.
The store features country "themed" products as well
as our own fresh produce.
It is also a place to display our collection of antiques
and farm tools, which is hung from the rafters and walls of the
old barn.
Many items in the collection were used right here on the
farm and generous friends and neighbors gave the others to the
farm.
Products for sale include locally made honey, maple syrup and
preserves.
We have locally milled flour, pancake, cookie, bread, and
muffin mixes as well as popcorn kernels in gallon jugs. The
store carries Hershey's old fashioned ice cream novelties
including Popsicles, Nutty Buddies and Fudgesicles, and we also
offer a nice selection of cold beverages and snacks.
For
those of you who like to work in your own kitchen, we have a
huge selection of items: gadgets like cherry pitters and apple
peelers, food mills, cookie cutters, pie plates, cookbooks, and
pottery.
During the season our store is 'canning central'....chock
full of canning and jam and jelly-making supplies. We also
carry a large selection of tasty, ready-
made jams, jellies, fruit syrups, relishes and pickles.
We carry a large selection of framed art for your country home.
Our favorites are by artist Robert Duncan who does farm
scenes and country snowmen.
We
have lots of pictures that feature country landscapes, horses,
and other farm animals.
One added attraction is our world famous cats. We have 5 cats that live on our farm and they are usually hanging out in
our store. Our cats love people, and if you're lucky, one
of them will follow you around and keep you company.
We
also have antiques, lamps, candles, and many gifts
to choose from.
And don't forget....we always have our own fresh, ready-picked
fruit at the Farm Store if you don't have time to pick yourself.
