There are multiple self-serve sheds on the property to explore that are filled to the brim with 1000s of books, all for $1 or less. There are also a ton of DVDs, vinyls, and even sheet music.

I visited here again recently and this place is still just as magical! It's tucked away in the…read morewoods and is chock full of immeasurable charm. The owner is English and her business is an extension of her lovely personality. I have childhood memories of this place that could have come straight out of a magical fairytale book. There are many categories here; a large history section, gardening, art, film, geography, mythology, crafts, so many categories and subcategories, and because they are curated by someone passionate with books there are no filler books here. The prices are unbelievably reasonable, this is a curated collection by a woman passionate about books, making a living off of it feels secondary here to the passion of finding the books. You will not ever find another place like this. In a small rural town no less! This is a destination place if you are visiting the area. Such a gem!

A great local bookstore…read more There is like 1 maybe 2 people that seem to work here. The shelves are loaded with all types of books from woodworking to youth fiction to historical works. Just everything under the sun, and they all seem very fairly priced. My son found a number of great kids books, I found a book on Mission style furniture making, and my wife found a number of novels she was interested in. Something for everyone and a lot to look through! TL;DR: Good bookstore, fair priced.

This place is MAGIC!…read more Absolutely the neatest, most organized book store I've ever been in. The selection is amazing - and the condition of the books is beautiful. I could get lost for hours! My mom has randomly asked me if I knew a used bookstore with old vet manuals (like for cows, etc) and I happened to walk by this place a couple days later, so I popped in. I found several OLD (1904-ish) farm vet type books. Upon checking out, I told the owner how thrilled I was to find them, and he recommended I go upstairs, second door, second shelf from the top, closest to the window.... he knows every book in the place! And word is he has another warehouse full of books!! They're only open 11-5 on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so I plan to go back at 10:59 with snacks and stay the duration. Poor guy is gonna have to throw me out!

It smells like straight-up old-school candy- not just one kind, but all of it at once. There are candy necklaces, rock sugar crystal sticks, lollipops, Mike & Mike's, Red Hots,, bagged milk chocolates, Pocky sticks and British chocolates- to name a few. Behind the counter is Caiden- who enlightened me on the British chocolate! Thank you- it was freaking delicious! I was also looking for vanilla and chocolate Now & Later- but doesn't carry those. I also picked up a couple of single candies like Toosie Rolls and a few others that were a penny each back in the day. These are 25¢. Listen, you can get candy from the supermarket and stuff- but there's something timeless (at least for me) about going to the candy store.
