We've been visiting here for over 40 years, it was always a great experience and a part of our weekend rides in summer time.Our favorite things were the cheese and fresh baked bread.

Charming place to visit. Super friendly staff.The town is lovely...like really classic New England. The building is pretty old, so it feels like you're stepping back in time. The floors are a little uneven, so be careful.The stuff they sell is mostly touristy stuff, like t-shirts, mugs,figurines,etc. They also had maple syrups, and cheese. There was also an entire room for kids things. But, the game changer is the fudge. Several varieties, of which my husband bought most, haha.Next door was a quilt shop, which was closed down, but the building dates from 1805 which adds to the charm.There was plenty of parking in back

This is the best store in southern vermont. They have the best cheddar I have ever had. They have great old fashioned candies and fancy fudge and truffles. They have nice nice souvenirs and cute little toys for kids.

Such a great little store. All of their premadr foods are worth a try. Yo U must try their chilli and corn bread it is probably one of the best things they have!All of their produce, meats, and eggs are local and delicious as well. They have a great selection of various cuts of meats in their freezer section as well as desserts for in their display cases.

Very cute store - deducting 2 stars for being questioned in front of the entire store if we ACTUALLY paid for the $5 mini rolling pin we bought.We were told to feel free to check out at the cashier counter at the back of the store, and then after doing so, were weirdly stopped by the lady at the front (the same one who said we could check out in the back) who implied we did not actually pay. I know in this day and age mini rolling pin thieves are running rampant, but I sincerely PROMISE I am not one of them ! love ya

Amazing shop in the cute town of Wilmington. Well stocked with local cheeses and fun drinks. The store has lots of Vermont items from magnets and pics to maple syrup and dish towels. There are lots of toys and puzzles, but most importantly a delicious assortment of chocolates and the best fudge around. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Stop in to see what piece of Vermont you can bring home!

Wonderful store. Since 1971 I'd love to drive up to this store in Vermont and buy the best Cheddar cheese there is. But moved to Colorado and missed their cheese since. Well I ordered some up and had a smile on my face since. This is a fantastic store to visit. Orders boxed excellent and quick.

Very cute local shop in Wilmington with a nice selection of local cheese, syrup, homemade fudge, sauces, spices, toys, and more. Great place for Mt Snow travelers to stop and find something to take home with them. Very friendly staff as well.

Ask for the REAL Vt Cheddar at the counter... not the stuff you buy at grocery stores. I promise you won't be disappointed. The homemade fudge and chocolate are excellent. It's a family owned store that I've been going to all my life and has lots of true history. When I was a little girl the towns actual Guillotine stood in the walkway in front of the store. Through the years and patrons messing with it, it was taken down. You can still feel the history however in the store.Ps.. the VT cheese can be eaten by lactose intolerance folks!!!! 😉

Handmade chocolate is amazing. We’ll be back for more and as gifts. Lots of fun items in the store. Lady/owner was very nice and let use the restroom which is a rarity in this town. Happy to not live far from this store over MA border.

We always try to stop here. They have great cheddar cheese and a large selection of homemade fudge that we pick from for our trip. In addition, many other local and homemade goodies to satisfy your appetite. Then there are home goods, toys, and more. If that was not enough, to top it all off - friendly, warm, and genuine people to help you with your purchase and a bit of local history if you are interested.

Fun little shop with gifts galore. They have very unique candies and treats, and a huge selection of cookie cutters. We had fun browsing around and the staff was nice. If you want a unique life-sized stuffed animal, go here!!

I haven't been in this store for several years. There used to be a lot of affordable items but everything is so expensive now that I didn't buy anything at all. The store itself is very quaint with good quality items, although they were overpriced. Saw squares of fudge for over $10 and individual truffles for $2.50.

Vermont gifts, plenty of plush selections, awesome cheese, and much more await at this must-stop shop in Wilnmington. Friendly staff offer samples and even have a bathroom for public use. Prices in line with what you'd expect.

Nice country store I'm very thankful I don't live very far from Wilmington and I get to go enjoy the nice little town this little country store has nice little things in life that are good for gifts and it won't get wasted or put in the closet so I do recommend stopping here and picking up a special something for one of your friends or a birthday gift or Christmas because it's worth the trip

Nice store with fairly reasonable prices on cheese, crafts, t-shirts, etc. We bought a couple of T-shirts and the block of cave-aged Vermont cheddar we bought was just wonderful! Staff was nice and the store was well kept and arranged.

I just had a pound of cheddar cheese shipped to me here in Missouri. It is the most delicious cheese we've ever eaten. We will be ordering again.
