This was a great place to visit on a rainy day. The place is quite big, so it was easy to practice social distancing. We saw 2 excellent exhibits. The gift shop has beautiful jewelry in it.

The new owners are doing a fantastic job! The wide variety of peanuts, jams, jellies, hot sauces and BBQ rubs to choose from is amazing. They even have a small but well stocked wine section. We were greeted as we walked in and all our questions about items were answered to our satisfaction. Friendly and knowledgeable staff that has been there for many years is always ready to assist with holding your purchases at the register while you shop. We will be returning! Looking forward to the new website.
