Things we hear often "I've lived here 30 years and never came in", "I didn't realize this was such a cool shop!", "I thought you just had dirty rocks." "It smells AMAZING in here!" And our personal favorite; "Did you dig these all up yourself?"

The truth is, we've worked hard to get it to the point it is now. We have people come in just to relax and calm their nerves. We love those people, but we also love meeting new people! We are so much more than just "dirty rocks"!

This season is usually very busy for us, but this year, we're hurting. More people seem to be shopping online. If you have it in your hearts, please support the small mom and pop shops. Support local. Share our pages to any local groups that allow it. Talk about us to your friends, like our pages, and leave us reviews on Google if you aren't able to shop with us. Those are small things that help your community so much!

As always, we love and appreciate every one of you!

*Edit* WE HAVE OUR WINNERS!! Thank you to everyone that participated! I'll make a new post showing what's come out of it, soon.

In 2019, when we bought the shop, we started an overhaul of cleanup around here. Now, we love rocks, but we haven't had the 56 years of collecting, cutting, and polishing that Dale and Wanda had. If you have ever seen a true rockhound's shop, you know how out of hand it can get. Then add on if they grew up during the great depression... well, you get the point.

Later in their years, they quit using some of the equipment. The big saws and giant triple tumbler were all buried under, you guessed it, rocks. Lots and lots of rocks and other "treasures"

We got the tumbler uncovered. It still works! It's also FULL and requires a pully system to lift one barrel! We thought you might enjoy seeing what's been in there for who knows how many years. It's caked in sludge and almost cemented down (we added the water to loosen it up). We're determined to get each piece out, cleaned up, and on to the next polishing step.

If you have read this far, congrats! We're giving a $20 gift certificate to the first person to guess correctly what is inside this barrel.

*One winner for our page and another for Instagram. One person can't win on both platforms.*
