Before leaving the Homestead Heritage area, we made one final stop at the Homestead Market. I'm…read moreglad we did because this place was the perfect way to wrap up our visit. The market is exceptionally clean, well organized, and beautifully maintained. Everything was neatly displayed, making it easy to browse without feeling rushed. Working behind the counter was Ms. Jenna. She greeted us with a warm smile and a friendly, welcoming attitude that made us feel right at home. She kindly let us know that if we needed anything, all we had to do was ask. We took our time wandering through the store, looking at all the unique items they had to offer. I couldn't leave empty-handed, so I picked up two bags of their chipotle-flavored pecans as souvenirs for my brothers. Whether they'll share them with anyone else is another story entirely. The Homestead Market is a really neat place and well worth a visit. I have no doubt I'll be back the next time I'm in the area. Maybe I'll see you there!

Lots of bulk spices, lots of spice mixes for a wide array of Indian dishes. Everything from frozen to microwave packets, canned goods, etc. Specials advertised on goods, and proprietor will let you know of any in case you didn't notice. Friendly, welcoming atmosphere.

Nice to have this sort of grocery local, will be able to replenish our supplies without planning a trip out of the area.

As we wandered around Heritage Homestead, we eventually stumbled upon the Homestead Tea House and…read moreGritsmill, both conveniently located in the same building. The moment you step through the door, it's as if you've been transported back in time to a simpler era where life moved a little slower and everything was made with care. Side note: I completely regret not getting the names of the two young ladies working in the Tea House and the gentleman operating the Gritsmill. Rookie mistake on my part. But I digress. While chatting with the young ladies, they shared some fascinating history about the mill. They told me the gristmill itself was transported all the way from New Jersey to its current home. Even more impressive, the millstone still being used today to grind wheat into flour is over 200 years old and came from France. Talk about a piece of living history! The store itself is spotless, neatly organized, and exceptionally well maintained. The two young ladies were friendly, welcoming, and eager to answer questions and help however they could. Now for the important stuff--the goodies. They make their own cookies, including oatmeal and chocolate chip, along with fresh scones and pastries. Naturally, I exercised great self-control and bought one of each to enjoy later with a cup of coffee. It seemed like the responsible thing to do. From the Gritsmill, we picked up two bags of grits, some scone flour, and a small jar of peanut butter. Unfortunately, we were still stuffed from lunch and couldn't do the Tea House justice by enjoying a cup of tea. Sometimes life presents difficult challenges. Needless to say, we'll be returning, and I can hardly wait. If you find yourself at Heritage Homestead, be sure to stop by the Tea House and Gritsmill. Who knows, maybe I'll see you there.
