Harrison Brothers Hardware
Keeping in the same historical vein, Harrison Brothers Hardware Store is a perfect place to do some local holiday gift shopping. Once a hardware store on the square in 1897, the space is now home to some of the same types of merchandise sold by the original shop. You’ll find things like pottery, cast iron cookware, and gardening tools. Their goal is to ensure that Harrison Brothers Hardware merchandise embodies “American made” at its finest.
As they say, “Harrison Brothers Hardware is not a trip to the mall. We are a shopping experience where family, community, tradition, and customer service are preserved.” You become part of the Harrison Brothers family tradition when you shop with them and support the store.
