Jericho Center Country Store |
Jericho Center Country Store is the oldest store in Vermont, having turned 200 in 2007. It was established as Blackman's Store in 1807 by Pliny Blackman, who travelled to Winooski via boat to obatin his goods from Canadian traders. After a fire destroyed the original storefront in the late 1800s the Jordan Brothers, then the owners, rebuilt it and added a second story, which is how the store stands today. At the apex of the building is the state's only 8-sided window found in a store.
The store is rich with history and shopping inside is an experience in itself. There is a working post office, a 100-year-old Kellogg's Corn Flake storefront sign, numerous antiques and photos, an old case of embalming fluid, an old hoosier, and much more. Over the years there have been commerical and movie shoots here and the store has been featured recently in the Burlington Free Press, Seven Days, Vermont Life, VPR, and the Essex Reporter.
We specialize in made-to-order subs and sandwiches, pizza, soups and salads, and have a full line of grocery products, Vermont gifts, clothing, penny candy, maple creemees, microbrews, and Vermont wines.
We're a twenty-minute skip from Burlington, located at 25 Jericho Center Circle, in Jericho Center. Off exit 11 (Richmond), take a left onto Route 117 towards Essex, take a quick right onto Governor Peck Highway, then take a left onto Browns Trace Road. You can't miss us.
