Allen "Dandy" Ayers

1920-2006

Our store is named for and themed in honor of the legacy left by our grandfather, Dandy. He was a honest and hard-working man that loved God, his country and the simple things of life. A craftsman that loved the outdoors, nothing made him happier than time surrounded by friends and family. We hope to share that legacy and feeling right at home with everyone that comes through our doors. 

Dandy's Country Market transports the customer to a simpler place and time with inventory providing quality and handcrafted  products. Many of our products come from Amish country in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. With choices for your pantry, home and outdoor and great service to boot!
