Crossroads Village & Huckleberry Railroad
Country Tea
November 27, December 4, 11, and 18, 2010.

A Country Tea is something of a cross between a formal sit-down function and a buffet because you are offering hour d’oeuvres-type finger foods in an elegant, seated environment. Crossroads Village’s Country Tea experience is filled with old village charm and is a true, historic Country Tea. Time: 1:30 pm.  Reservations must be made by the Wednesday prior to the tea date.

Take Home a Keepsake

Like the small towns of the last century, visitors to Crossroads Village will find a well-stocked general store and post office, plus shops that specialize in everything from candy and kitchen towels to pretty dishes and flour ground at the Village mill.

Shop at the General Store and Village Post Office

The shelves of the General Store reach nearly to its 12 ½-foot ceiling, and they’re filled with many of the same kinds of goods that families purchased in this very store 100 years ago. You’ll find three kinds of flour ground right in the Village at the Atlas Gristmill, plus jams and jellies, candles, kitchen towels and pretty dishes. There’s also a big selection of toys and gifts for every budget, so you can bring a bit of Crossroads



Need postcards, stamps or disposable cameras? Stop next door at the post office and stock up on supplies. Cards and letters sent from here will be stamped with the Village’s own postmark!

Especially for Train Fans

The Train Station Gift Shop is a train-lover’s dream with its bins of train whistles, engineer caps, books and games!
