The store sells deli meats and cheeses, baked goods, jellies, candy, and baking supplies.
The store should become a destination shopping point, especially for folks who visit The Cheese Shop in Stuarts Draft. This store carries similar items.
They have a whole aisle just for candy. Candy sells big in Botetourt. Apparently we all have a sweet tooth.
The bulked items, like brown sugar, flours, etc., are very reasonably priced. I purchased a huge bag of light brown sugar for $1.89.
The spices are also very reasonably priced and, I think, better quality than what you buy in the supermarket. If you do a lot of cooking or use one or two items more than others, purchasing here might save you some money.
I am very happy to see a new business in Fincastle. I love our little county seat but it doesn't have much of a retail trade. There is a drug store across from the courthouse, and that's about it.
If you live in the Roanoke area, I hope you will check out Heritage Family Market.

ReplyDeleteis the landscaping store the one across from dollar general?
ReplyDeleteI will check it out!
ReplyDeleteNIce!!!! I need to visit this place. I go to the cheese shop all the time, Wonder why I have not seen anything in the Botetourt View or The Herald?
ReplyDeleteAnita, this is definitely the type of place we would frequent and maybe will stop in on a future Blue Ridge trip. That candy aisle looks so tempting!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great little market ~ love the candy isle :)))
ReplyDeleteWe love that store. It's great to have something like that in Fincastle. I think they want to expand to making sandwiches and that would make it even better.
ReplyDeleteWe have a local business much like this. I always purchase my spices from them.
ReplyDeleteI love that store like I love Lanetta!
ReplyDeleteThis is an amazing store--great photos too.
ReplyDeleteThis store is awesome and I'm so glad they are in the area. We shop there often!
