Calder Store — Attraction in Flat Rock

My husband and I popped in for ice cream on the way home. There was a young girl behind the counter helping customers that were there before we came in. There was a young boy that asked if he could help us. My husband asked for 1 scoop on a sugar cone and I asked for 2 scoops on a sugar cone.

The year-around store you would expect to only find at Pumpkin patches or Fall festivals. Fun to browse around the store and check out the various brands and flavors for sauces, jellies, jams, candies, chocolates, chips, desserts, cookies and so much more. We bought some 2% milk and some "home made" butter. Their milk is delicious and perhaps worth the extra you pay for it. Haven't tasted the butter yet, saving it for toast in the morning. Looking forward to it. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is because of the higher prices you would expect at...
