I love this place! They have lots of little knick knacks, fairy garden items, cups, pictures, jewelry, art, aquatic plants, art prints, shampoo bars, stuff for taking care of water features and more. We love feeding the fish for 25¢ and sitting on the benches, and looking at the birds and sheep. There's always a friendly face when you visit the store, and they have a really sweet pup, Willow, who is happy to see people. I can't overstate how cool it is that they sell stuff from local artists and creatives, with their cards and everything. Give this place a visit, you won't be disappointed. They even offer classes for all sorts of things, making this a really wonderful little community spot.

Great place for koi and supplies. Kevin is very knowledgeable and helpful in building and maintaining your pond. He just redid mine after a bear tore the liner.
