For the Birds & Garden: Many Cats

We stopped in this shop because it said outside that it had information, and they did have information, but it wasn't the official visitor's center. The owner told us lots of history. They also have multiple cats.

I understand that the shop is moving to another town, but the bird seed that they sold will be carried by the store that is replacing them here.

What to buy: They have hundreds of bird houses including blue bird houses, hummingbird feeders, pottery, statuary, garden accessories and Christmas ornaments.
