Barfield Country Store — Local services in Alford

What a neat stop! Make a stop in on your way to Florida or home. There are nice, clean restrooms, friendly staff, and cute souvenirs. We wanted to look at the Bonsai Trees and are now the proud owners of one. The sweet lady running the store talked to us about how to properly care for our new plant. We even bought a jar of Mayhaw Jelly after seeing the signs on the road advertising it. We read up on the Hawthorn Tree, which it comes from. Excited to see what it tastes like. We couldn't resist the Florida citrus while we were in the store. I now have a nice snack for the ride home and breakfast for the morning. There is a variety of candy for kids, gifts for adults to browse through, and even snacks to peruse for the guys in your life. Make the stop, and your tastebuds...

They are very quick and uncomplicated ordering with payment options right in front of you while...

I love shopping for a high variety of canned/bottled goods. My absolute favorite is Cajun Candy (sweet jalepeno relish). I use it on burgers, hotdogs, chicken sandwiches and mix it in my tuna and egg salad. They have a wide variety of Amish preserved foods. I tried a Corn Cob Jelly that is surprisingly delicious. The store also sells candy, souvenirs, Bonsai trees, ice cream and BBQ. RIGHT OFF HIGHWAY 231...
