We happened upon this mid-sized shop on our way to some farms. Once inside, we were surprised at…read morethe space and it was filled with unique and charming items for all ages. The owner and operator was most inviting and helpful. I only spent about 30 minutes inside but observed so many items that were inviting and worthy of another trip. I was able to purchase some items for upcoming events and admired several others. The shop even has sensory toys for children that could benefit from sensory toys. The shop has a set of handcrafted items by young artist as well as teas by an organization called Skirted Soldier - which is a female Veteran Owned company. I cannot wait to try the Cold Weather Gear tea (gingerbread house black tea). This bag of loose tea includes tea bags. Nice touch! I enjoy shopping and supporting local and/or small businesses. I am looking forward to my next visit.

My fam and I visited some family up in Southern MD over the holidays and my SIL brought me to…read moreKeepin' It Local. I'm sure the locals know about the place but they don't seem to be sharing it on Yelp (maybe trying to keep it for themselves) LOL. This house contains quite an extensive collection of things from food items, vintage to handmade goods. It's like as if Etsy did a pop-up here. On the ground level, you can find local ice cream, meats from a local farm and other homemade goods like jams and sauces. Browsing in there makes it fun too as the items are displayed in the different rooms throughout. Every corner you turn there is something new! I saw some really beautiful items, some funny ones too. Great mix of stuff! You'll definitely find a one-of-a-kind item at this shop! Stay safe, Friends!

I always find stuff for my 5 kids when I go there. The prices range on the higher side for consigned stuff, but you can usually find good deals and everything is cheaper than retail. The staff are very friendly as well. This place is worth the drive! (They recently relocated so make sure you aren't looking for them in Charlotte Hall!)

I was so impressed by that! Oh and there is a beer garden on the other side of the wall - you can actually walk into it from SOF! I absolutely love the layout of this place though it is not ADA compliant to say the least - the top floor is only accessible from tight little stair cases with steep stairs but once you get up there, there are so many things to look at from crystals to stickers and garden decorations aplenty! I am just super impressed that they're able to figure out how to charge us for everything - they have a pretty sophisticated system because you bring everything up to the front cashier and they figure it all out for you - technology is great!!! I loved all of the stocking stuffers I was able to pick up - so many small items that are reasonable priced and perfect to fit in a stocking, Easter basket, Hanukkah gift...you name it!!!

While out on this trek I was looking for items to bring into my home that were unique and fit my…read morebudget. I was already in this area to take a peek at what they had to offer and the stores and selection varied a lot. Some places had low quality times for a high price, some had low quality for a low price, however this one was on the other end of the spectrum for me. The items here are of very high quality...with a price tag to match. That's not a bad thing in the least. But when you are just looking for a unique item to add to your living space without having to give much care to the thought of maintenance, this isn't the place for you. Walking into this place almost feels like you are walking into a partial museum. It is beautifully laid out and the pieces are so pristine that you almost feel hesitant to touch. The building is quaint and it can take some time to go through the building. There are two floors to explore with a ton of different items to look through. Trinkets to furniture for your picking. I did see many items that I loved just by looking at, but too far of a reach for my pocketbook. What I found extraordinary here was the customer service. After looking through their stock and not finding what I was looking for I had asked the lady working if there were any other places nearby to search. She went over the top and told of several places in the direction that I was heading. I was very grateful for her assistance and she wasn't wrong with her suggestions.

I have been going there for over 5 years I saw a review saying they are raciest and that is an absolute not true and it's old ladies that own it when it's a husband and wife. Never had an issue as my children, brother, sister and other family members are of different races and nationality and yes I am of color. I know everyone has their opinions. Love this place and will continue stopping there to see what they have.
