One of our favorite things about New Hampshire is the many small towns that dot the map. From mountain towns to rural spots seemingly in the middle of nowhere, these are the places that give the Granite State its personality. And the businesses that exist within them are what keeps life chugging along. Here’s a great example!
Head to the small town of Washington in Sullivan County and you’re likely to find a whole lot of quiet.

This little general store has been locally owned for more than 20 years and the community has loved it the whole time. They sell just about anything you might need, including plants!

Specials each day include things that might surprise you! How about a BBQ brisket that was smoked in-house for 9 hours?
