The Mercantile is located next door to the mill in the old Cumbow Store building. Every room in this building is full of one-of-a-kind gifts and collectibles. Over 140 local crafters sell their wares on commission, with a portion of the profits going directly toward White•s Mill. From local art, including many photos and paintings of White•s Mill, to handmade quilts and candles, the Mercantile is a wonderful place to buy a gift for anyone on your list. Also available are t-shirts with our new logo (artwork by Deanna Akers Green). The root beer and Moon Pies are becoming favorites with the locals, who stop by often for a snack. Annie Michal is the Mercantile manager.
