I am located in a unique barn-like three-level store on my farm that is 10 miles north of Decorah. Stop in and ask "What's New". It could be a primitive table, a nice piece of glassware, an advertising piece, a period furniture piece, or a farm collectible. Items you can decorate with, or items you can collect, or items that you can enjoy for what they are. My better half spouse also has her hand made "Chic Chenile" vests here- each one is a one of a kind- very colorful and stylish.

The store is on a hard surface road 1/2 mile off Highway 52. In addition to what is in the heated store, the is also a large unheated area and also 4 outbuildings with more items-mainly larger items- structure and landscape items. All are welcome to walk around.
