Wakarusa

EAT

Locals can’t get enough of the mouthwatering wings at Shortstop Inn and the Garage Coffee Shop is the ideal gathering place to sip on a cup of joe. Peanut cashew nut butter pairs perfectly with the fresh breads at Grandma’s Pantry.

SHOP

Shop for candy you loved as a kid or try the world-famous jumbo jelly beans at the Wakarusa Dime Store celebrating over 100 years of sweetness. See the “wall of a thousand drawers” at the 120-year-old Wakarusa Hardware and discover an unexpected surprise at the local feed store! Richmond’s Feed Store has a great selection of stylish clothes and accessories. 

EXPLORE

Explore springtime fun piling on pancakes at the annual Maple Syrup Festival. Marvel at the miniatures of Indiana’s architectural icons at the Wakarusa Historical Museum. Gaze in wonder at the blooming bonanza in the annual Quilt Garden May 30 through September 15 and Waterford Street’s brilliantly colored sugar maples en route to the towering Pumpkin Tree in October.
