“My sister and I came in here for a new battery for my car keys today. I asked the gentleman at the register if there was any way he could help me take the key apart. He took his time to take my key apart, get the new battery and replaced it all for me. He was so kind and friendly and went way above and beyond!!! I did not get his name but hopefully he sees this and realizes that he made my day. Such great customer service!”
“Holy cow this place has everything. Great selection of products from paint, hardware to power equipment and most everything in-between too.
FYI .. it's not a convenience store though, get your munchies fix elsewhere.”
“The best hardware store in CT, Taylor, Jarrett and BJ do a phenomenal job, they have a wide variety of products and they are very knowledgeable. 10/10 recommend to anyone in the area”

“The old 'Higganum Feed' was a dump and the people working the same sort you'd encounter at an inner city auto shop. The place is under new management which clearly takes pride in the appearance of the place and the gentleman behind the counter is friendly and helpful. Give it a try and you'll see for yourself. And no, no interest in the place, couldn't tell you the owners name.”
“I’ve been working with Horton since 1975 when I worked with the owners grandparents. They are the best. Businesses just aren’t like this anymore and it’s sad that more don’t track like Horton’s, always toward the quality”
“Great people who really know what they’re doing. They helped me choose the right snowblower, didn’t try to oversell me, and were there for me when I needed help afterwards.”
“Cute store with both practical and also fun items. If you're going to require a STORE NUMBER for the survey, though, it might be a good idea to include that on the receipt so we don't have to look it up ourselves online only to have Google give you the wrong answer.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five Stars Isn’t Enough! I’m not even sure where to start — this business, the staff, the atmosphere — everything about Shagbark is above and beyond amazing. We moved to town almost three years ago, and from day one, we were treated like family. We rely on Shagbark for everything: animal feed, bedding, gardening supplies, and even materials for our next big house project. Our children love coming along (mostly for the popcorn, of course!), and every visit makes us feel welcomed, appreciated, and never like a bother. I recently started a local cottage bakery and had the honor of being a vendor at Shagbark’s Fall Festival. I must have asked a hundred questions during the process, and not once did anyone make me feel like I was being a nuisance. The staff’s kindness, patience, and genuine support for small businesses are unmatched. Shagbark truly embodies what it means to care for a community — from giving back to supporting local families and making every customer feel at home. It’s a blessing to have them right here in our town. If you haven’t been yet, go! Local or far you won’t be disappointed. You’ll find everything you need and leave with a smile. Shagbark is one of a kind. ?❤️”
“Great store!! Local owned and sooo soo kind everytime I go whether for birdseed or odd garden/car stuff. Super friendly and they always carry my mulch bags or birdseed to my car. Won't stop going ever.”
“Our son took us to pumpkintown USA I bought a few items a white pumpkin & purple cabbage plant. Our son bought their famous apple cider doughnuts. We drove thru the pumpkin theme patch.”
