If you’re interested in taking a step back in time, visit Fulmer’s General Store in Richton. There is a wonderful little store, complete with a restaurant. You can buy fresh baked items, products from local farms and spices and other dry goods in bulk. In addition, at times, there are demonstrations of life on a homestead many years ago. We visited with my daughter’s school and had a wonderful time…here’s a taste:
Making butter…each child was able to take a turn at the churning.
Meeting the farm animals…these guys actually work the farm…and the kids loved them!
Making biscuits…the old fashioned way.
Cooking over a campfire…
Other highlights included: washing clothes by hand, riding in a horse-drawn wagon, picking pecans, and much more! Be sure to check it out, and remember that Fulmer’s host the annual Mississippi Pecan Festival each Fall. Enjoy!
My husband and I went to Fulmer’s this past weekend with another couple. We all enjoyed it thoroughly . The staff was all so very friendly and great customer service! Starting with the meal the food was great ! They all had the chicken sandwich and I had the hamburger steak meal . The atmosphere and the shopping was fun too. Got to buy some of the yummy homemade breads and other good stuff. We will definitely go again soon.
Glad you enjoyed it! I thought it was such a fun (and educational) place!
