“It’s an actual country store,” Locke explained. “The building is circa 1910, or 1909.” It’s stocked with some modern items, but many offerings are what you’d expect from an old general store. There’s a soda shop. Provisions. Kitchenware. Soaps. Salves. Musical instruments. And according to Locke, “things that are unique, artisan-made crafts.”
Visitors can savor some local flavors. “The food is the type you’d find in a small town in rural Virginia,” Locke said. He’s got things such as locally grown grits. Cornbread. Pinto beans. A specifically local item offered is the savory hand-pies.
