Spices, honey, marinades, salsa's, sauces, dried soups, gifts, cards, and more...
They make their own popcorn here, so many flavors! They also have 20 flavors of ice cream every day as well as milkshakes/malts, pints to go. They announce the ice cream flavors every week, follow their Facebook page to find out what flavors will be available for the upcoming weekend.
They have events there for kids so watch for that on their Facebook as well as holiday events.
The Owner, Christie, she is amazing! I could talk to her for hours and hours! If its your first time there, hopefully you will get to meet and talk to her, and find out more about the community and upcoming events hosted in Union Grove.
You can tell she really cares about the community and all of the local businesses and what the community does together to support eachother and others. Great visit! Glad...
