These 5 Charming General Stores In Oklahoma Will Make You Feel Nostalgic
There aren’t many nostalgic general stores left in Oklahoma today. We enjoy the convenience of modern day QT’s and Casey’s, but there is something charming about old fashioned general stores. You can usually find homemade fudge, specialty candy and nostalgic souvenirs, along with all the necessities. Step into any of these stores and enjoy the charming country atmosphere.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
