Cool store to check out right off the Blue Ridge Parkway. It's packed full of all kinds of mountain…read morestuff, gifts, souvenirs, jams, jellies, produce, candy, ciders, clothing, and they have a big assortment of Lodge cast iron cook wear. They also have a little kitchen in the back where they offer sandwiches and scratch made biscuits and homemade breads, fried pies and a bunch of other stuff. There's no seating inside, there are some tables, rockin' chairs and benches outside if you want to sit and eat. From the kitchen I ordered a ham, egg & cheese biscuit and got a little container of their banana puddin'. The biscuit was great, the nanner puddin' was ok, I also got a couple of their no bake chocolate oatmeal cookies for the road which were awesome, they call them "Preachers Cookies" here, I always knew them as "Cow Patties"... really neat place.

I swung by a place next door for lunch. They were crazy busy though and I saw on Yelp that this…read moreplace did sandwiches so I decided to give them a try. It was barely controlled chaos in the store to say the least. It was a Saturday when I swung through, so all of the tourists from the Blue Ridge Parkway were stopping by for their tourist shopping fix. So I don't blame the chaos on the store so much as the tourists acting all rude and entitled, shoving their way around the store. I digress. The deli sandwich I had was very good, and made promptly. I also had a homemade brownie which had the perfect amount of sweetness and walnut ratio to it. I wanted to try the Possum Pie but just get the nerve up to ask what was in it. I mean it couldn't have been real possum could it? They do have limited outside tables. I was lucky enough to snag one but you may want to pick your food up here and then plan for a nice picnic on one of the parkways scenic pullouts.

We love the scented tarts that he stocks that we use in the Scentsy burner and he has a good selection of garden flags that I like to look at. Beyond that, there are just a lot of really cute decorative items - wall hangings, seasonal kitsch stuff, seasonal dinnerware, stylish home decor like figurines, decorative tins, garden art, etc. It's a little hard to describe but so worth a visit.

Frogholler is a lavender farm, with a small nursery. They have a couple of weeks in the late spring when you can go and pick lavender stems for $0.10 each. There are tables where you can make lavender wands or wreaths. There were rows and rows of lavender to pick from. The scent of the garden was heavenly. There were few people there, so staying away from others was not an issue. We had a lovely time picking our flowers. They provide baskets and sanitized scissors which are returned immediately to a bin of disinfectant when you're done. The people were fun, helpful and friendly. Check-out is in a small, but adorable gift shop. During this period, they limit to four people at a time in the shop and you must wear a mask. The shop has all things lavender, i.e. soap, oils, sachets, etc., plus items like handmade birdhouses. While we waited our turn, they served us a cup of delicious lavender lemonade. It was perfectly balanced - lemony with a light floral undertone. If you're looking for something different and fun to do, this is a good choice. They apparently have some other festivals over the season, so I'll be checking them out, too.

Stopped in here to check out the merch and maybe grab a souvineer or shirt. Figured while yes this is a tourist trap it may be reasonable since it a very small town and the essence of Mayberry should be adorable and community driven. But no they was as crazy expensive as any other tourist trap store you would find in big cities. Overall they had some cool and fun t shirts and merch but nothing worth $25 for any shirt you can probably find online cheaper.
