10.24 Wednesday-
This trip will ultimately bring us to three separate venues.
We were just casually driving on our way to the next waterfall when this sign jumped out at us. I mean, could you just drive by without checking out some “Moonshine?” The first of the three venues was this typical general store. It sold everything from grass seed to liquors.
We were there only a few minutes when the storekeeper told us of their other location was bigger and had a better selection; so off we went.
Just up the road from the country store was this very symbolic western town. It wasn’t just a façade, all the storefronts were occupied. Some of the units had, sheriff, barber shop, ammunition and a restaurant/B&B. Below, I’m not sure. A little to small for a “tiny home!” I’ll let you contemplate other options.
The views from this part of the world are awesome! We’re up high enough so we can see for miles. Below is the second venue.
This property is years of creative building and plantings. Above is a silo with an herb garden in the forefront. Rows and rows of grape vines, not to mention other plantings. This is the area in the back of this building. Mostly used for large group meetings and weddings.
The storekeeper back in the original location was right. Much more stuff to look over and purchase. Jams and liquors are very noticeable. Yes, we did not leave empty handed.
Below is another gathering area, smaller than the outside area. The fireplace was awesome.
The views are as awesome as the plantings around the property.
Our third and last venue in this area was just up the road, where else, was a distillery. Ben was the barkeep. The storekeeper gave us his name. I have a feeling this is one very bi family operation, I might be wrong, but I feels like it. More vineyards below.
Last time we saw Llamas was n a farm in Maggie Valley. What is it about Llamas?
Our last look of mama Llama. It’s time to leave. Off to our final destination which would be “just down the road.” For more information on this venue: goto: Chattooga Belle Farm
