The Old Store in Grassy Creek lives in a building with a great history. Constructed in about 1900 when the agriculture industry was booming in the area it has served many prominent purposes, including a doctor’s office, a post office, and a former general store and gas station which operated until around 1990 when it turned into an office for a family-owned Christmas tree farm. Restored to its former glory, this once-abandoned place once again serves a vital purpose to this small town of fewer than 1,000 residents because in 2020, the old building was renovated and reopened as a general store and small event venue.

This old building has long been a picturesque landmark for residents and people passing through.
