Coming Attractions

Well, as the temperature get cooler and the trees begin to look bare, it can only mean that the holidays are just around the corner. Even with the cooler weather, our Farmers' Market still has some great items from delicious baked goods to craft items to even a few items of produce (onions, turnips, squash). The Market is open every Saturday from 8:00am-2:00pm. They will be taking orders for those holiday goodies, so stop by and visit with us.

The downtown store will be having their Holiday Open House the weekend of November 21-23. This a real chance to get a leg up on your Christmas Shopping. Whether it's great art, clothing, or home decor, the Downtown Merchants can fill all of your orders.

As the weather get colder, the wineries are still open, but with smaller crowds. Roaring fireplaces, godd friends and great Missouri wines-how could you spend a better time? I would recommend that you try the port at a number of the wineries. Combine that with the cold weather, some cheese, chocolate and that special someone and you couldn't ask for anything better.

After a day at the winery or a crisp ride on the Katy Trail, how about a cozy weekend at one of the quaint bed and breakfasts or modern motels in Washington? I can't think of a better way to spend a late fall or early winter weekend. What makes it even better is that you can ride the Amtrak to Washington. A train ride, wine, great food, and cozy lodging-I think that's just what everyone needs! Come see us!
