From the guide

For an introduction to the longtime importance of country stores in rural America, don’t miss the wonderful “Cradle to Coffin: Remembering the Country Store” exhibit at the Brownsburg Museum in North Rockbridge. This recreated shop displays early 20th-century medicinal products, canned goods, clothing, and toys, plus there’s helpful signage that explains the key role played by these stores. The exhibit is open on weekend afternoons from spring through December.
