I am not much of a shopper and find a lot of gift shops overpriced with nothing for me, but I came away from here with several things for my dog sitter, for Christmas stockings, for my special foodie shelf. The owner is friendly and conversational and knows her stuff. If you aren't walking the Trolley Trail, you can drive into the strip mall and park. I really encourage anyone driving along route 2 to loop into Leominster for this small gem.

It has snacks and drinks to buy, most of those are local too. The fudge, cookies, coffee cakes and chocolate dipped Oreos are fantastic. There are no full meals or sandwiches though. Just goodies and cheese. They have all the visitor center brochures too. In the fall they will give you apples from their apple trees. When they are open you can use their composting toilets. The bathrooms are always clean and looked after. They have a special shorter commode for children and there are cute paintings on the wall. The bathrooms used to be open 24 hours unattended but I think the of epidemic and insurance liability probably put an end to that. When the main building is closed there are portapotties and a kiosk with vending machines. There is a fenced in pet exercise area and seating outside and some covered areas to sit. It's a solid highway stop. It would be great if it were open past 5, but it's a nice place to stop when it's open and at least has necessary things available when it's not.

We did not realize we were in the hear of apple country until we got here. There are many farms nearby that have apple stands. If you have the time, get the brochure and visit some. They had a basket of freshly pick macintosh apples to take and eat as a giveaway from a random farm. It was so fresh and delicious. We have lived in Colorado for nearly 50 years and we never get Macs out there. But I grew up in New England and Macs were my favorite. They just don't travel well so are not grown fro cross country shipping. Take one if you are here at the right season. Along with all the Johnny Appleseed lore, it make a great highway stop.
