She sold the bag and never paid me anything for it. I'm sure she got a nice sum for it, but I never received a penny. We were actually friends at the time, and she had the nerve to just expect me to accept this behavior. Rotten.

Eclectica is in many ways a dying breed. There was a time not too terribly long ago that small,…read moreunique specialty shops were seemingly everywhere. And now they have largely been replaced by the dreariness, drabness, and sameness of chain stores. And make no mistake. Eclectica is a gem. You can find unique gift items here that you can't find anywhere else. There is something here for any budget. The owner is friendly, always offers a warm greeting, and is very helpful. It's clear from the moment you enter that she's put a lot of care and heart into this place, and it shows. If you are looking for a unique gift that literally you won't find anywhere else, or something for yourself, take a few moments to visit this place. You won't be disappointed. The items are always changing, always something new, and always something to please.

Some Terrain shops (the smaller ones inside Anthropologie stores) are limited to dried flowers, indoor plants, and accessories and garden tools, but they have larger stores, including this location in Glen Mills - their flagship location. It opened in 2008; it has a nursery, a huge home store (decor, candles, llighting, food, gifts, garden gear, indoor plants), a fafe, a greenhouse... Whether you're a gardener or not, Terrain is fun to explore. We visited two weeks ago, and I have to say that it's particularly beautiful in winter - all those Christmas trees in snow and a fire pit and seasonal decor... Worth stopping by if you're in the area!

Be sure to wear proper clothing for this indoor and outdoor shop. This is an Urban Outfitters family brand shop. Urban Outfitters was founded in Wayne, PA. Accordingly this first Terrain location was an all out endeavor. And it delivers. It's a hygge spa meets gardening paradise. Plan to spend 30-45 minutes shopping and walking the grounds. Halloween and the holidays are the best here. And a stop at the cafe to your next visit. See website for more information. Free parking but come early on weekends and event days.

Talk about country…read more This store is super cute, and I'm not sure if I'm even qualified to review it. By a quick observation of the place, they have their own slew of dedicated local regulars who are likely experts on their stock. Alas, here are the observations from my visit: 1. Incredibly sweet staff. One of the ladies behind the register even told my mom that there was food on the deck that day and to help herself. 2. Rustic and country are the key words at this place. I'm not the biggest country decor fan, but my mom is, and she loves this shop. It seems she never walks out empty-handed. 3. Lots of little rooms to explore. Jam-packed with the goods (seasonal/holiday right now), but not overwhelming. I may have to stop back here the next time I'm in Salem County to grab cutesy Christmas gifts for my family!

The owner is super nice. Once I bought orange Civia plant and few months into it wasn't doing well. I brought it back to show and ask for advice on what is wrong & what to do. They took the plant, treated it and kept for a while in the greenhouse till it became vibrant again and called me to pick it up. I appreciate that kind of customer service. That's why I continue to support this nursery and always happy to stop by and pick a new plant.

The car show gets a few hundred cars. If you want to enter your car it's $20 cash at the gate. They give you a small tin plaque and a registration card for your window. Since my car isn't winning any awards I don't stay till 3 pm to await the judges choices. My car is nice, but not prize winning nice but that's ok. It's a fun few hours. It got too hot by noon to stay longer. Weather in early May is tricky. Highly recommend checking out the car show. The general store on the grounds is huge. Bought lots of stuff to take home.

There's also a a market that sells freshly grown fruits, vegetables and local made goods. There's also a garden and gift shop selling a lot of the local artisan products. Lots of parking available around the main entrance area. We went early in the morning around 10am. We spent most of the first few hours walking around the zoo that had a huge chicken range, duck pond, cow, goats, sheep and horses. There are vending machine to buy corns to feed the animals. We had to get our own quarters as the coin exchange machine was broken. Around the noon we head to the Linvilla Grill. They had some good pizza and chicken tenders. There were few outdoor benched to dine. Price was little steep. The freshly squeezed lemonade was outrageous. They make the whole thing by grinding lemon right in front and put it in a huge plastic 32 oz jar. It is so worth for $8. We also bought some peaches and cooking sauces from the market. Cash is preferred, for credit card they charge fee at the market checkout.
