The Vermont country store has something for everyone. Household items, clothing, candy and much more. Bonomos Turkish taffy, Smith Brothers cough drops, Mary Janes, Charles's potato chips. All kinds of cheeses and crackers and a wide selection,of Vermont Maple syrup. Take a break and visit the store for a real treat.

I had no plans to visit the Vermont Country Store and had no idea it even existed. My husband and I were casually driving through Vermont and came upon the charming town of Weston where the store is located. I am so glad that we found this place. It is the type of quintessential country Vermont charm that we were looking to find.Walking through the front door you feel as if you have gone back in time. We walked right into an old fashioned candy store with barrels and barrels of candies that I had never seen before and some that I thought had gone extinct. Somehow they managed to capture my youth in this small space. Mallow cups, candy buttons, licorice, and home made chocolates. The smell was intoxicating. As we explored a bit more, we found the the store just kept going and going and going. The owners (it is family owned) have managed to merge the modern with the past quite well. They have sectioned off the store for everything from meats and cheeses, gourmet snacks, toys from the past and present, maple syrup, bedding, clothing and much more.I could not believe how big the store was and how many unique gifts and goodies that managed to find and pack into one place. Whoever is doing their buying has done an exceptionally good job.The place is apparently a local attraction and tourist site which explains why is was so crowded. Lines to check out were quite long, but they have even made the experience of waiting in line fun, decorating the aisles with other unique treats. The staff are extremely helpful and I have come to find out that they have gone officially hi-tech with a well run website to allow you to get any of these goodies when you return home.The one thing I would caution on is if you are traveling with children, leave the stroller in the car. The space is tight and it is often crowded. Trying to navigate around with a stroller would be nearly impossible. If you are looking for a quaint, charming piece of Vermont, this is a place you have to see.
The Country Store is filled with useful stuff -- you could spend hours browsing through the aisles. You will find things you remember from your grandmother's house -- products you didn't think were sold anymore, but also tons of gadgets, etc. that you will love. They have so many tasting stations, you won't really need lunch, but save room for the delicious meals next door at the Bryant House!
Lots of hard to find items, and things from my childhood, but you will pay for it! Food samplings through out the store held me over until dinner lol.
so worthwhile !! Adults and kids, and even adults wanting to be kids. Not sure about kids wanting to be adults though unless they really really want to stay, live, grow and breath Vermont - check out the flannel and other Vermont wear ( :> ). The amount of 'old world' kit is amazing with anything for the non-Vermonter to remember their trip to the Green Mountain State. Local food = cheese, beers, etc..., sweets, toys, clothes, kitchenware, etc... Attached is also a pit-stop for snacks, lunch and dinner. We ALWAYS stop by.
Stopped here on a tour of New England. The store is large with several different rooms full of food, gifts and home ware. I bought maple syrup, chocolates and cheesecake mix's - but beware - the same items were cheaper across the street in another very similar store.
such a great stop! we had so much fun tasting buying looking ...picking presents for friends and family...This store has everything!!! i subscribed to recieve their catalogues! anytime we go back to Vermont we will stop here..
