About Us
Customers are invited to cruise our beautiful back roads as they visit one of a kind country shops that believe in preserving old New England traditions. The farm stands, craft shops, and eateries participating in Country Roads will offer trees, wreaths, local food, baked goods, hand-made wood crafts, antiques, rural home decorations, fabrics, hand-crafted garments, and many other quality gifts.
Our Country Roads shops are family businesses that joined together in 2005 with a common desire to promote and support the local community. The 18 shops are about 27 miles from Worcester, 32 miles from Keene, NH, 56 miles from Springfield and just 60 miles from Boston! Pick up our brochure to view a map and more details about each of the wonderful businesses included in this tour of North Central Massachusetts! Most businesses are open year-round, though regular business hours may vary seasonally and from store to store.
