Today The Three of Us would like to invite you to the Davidson's farm in Surgoinsville after you visit us at the Homestead Shoppe. (Its only about 10 minutes "down the road toweds' Rogsville")
This place holds a special place in our community's hearts and you can read about it at their FB page:

The 3 of Us also have precious photos and memories of taking our children and our classrooms full of students to the pumpkin patch there over the years. My heart was so full of nostalgia as I walked through the store and the fields yesterday that I felt like I was returning to a part of my home. I even met a former student on the steps of the porch going in!
And maybe in a way, we are family. Mrs. Davidson, the grandmother that is featured in one of the photos was the librarian at Church Hill High School when our grandmother was a cook there. As an adult teacher on one of our field trips, I reminded Mrs. Davidson that she "shhhh"ed me often as a high school freshman and who my grandmother was. She remembered, not me thankfully- I guess there's a lot of chatty freshman in the library- but, told me that mammaw Armstrong gave her chocolate no-bakes from the school cafeteria. We share history, stories, a love for family and home; isn't that one definition of a family?
So, if you're following our page, you're an antique lover. They have this great restored antique counrty store. Stocked with local vendor baked goods, fresh sandwiches, crafts, meats, cornmeal, etc. There's shelves of canned goods. And the vendor list is growing! The best way to describe it is a mix of a short trip to Dollywood or an Amish store. You can also visit the farm for pumpkins, take the grandkids for activities, etc.
So, put the Davidson's Country Store on Your East Tn backroads fall must dos. I'm not an influencer. But I am an old East TN mountain woman that knows where the good stuff is 😀
