Shelburne Village Vermont
During our month in Shelburne, we did our grocery shopping at this family run grocery store that specializes in products from Vermont. Shelburne has a very small commercial area. The supermarket is in a small shopping area that includes a bank, computer store, pharmacy, hardware store, and a few restaurants.
This is a great supermarket that highlights Vermont products. People that shop there seem to really know each other. They not only say hello by name but ask something specific regarding family members or activities the person is involved in. We are clearly not regulars and basically tourists, in the area for a short time, do not find this gem.
The folks there are so friendly and helpful to us that when we can not locate a place or event in the area, we just stop in and ask one of the employees. They always take time to give us good information and directions.
This store has great breads made in bakeries nearby, Cabot and other cheeses from Vermont, along with maple syrup and maple syrup products, Lake Champlain chocolates which are so good, and meat, milk products, and produce from local farms.
Two generations of the same family run the grocery store. It is so unique as there do not seem to be too many family-run grocery stores that are thriving.
