What a fantastic place! It's huge with a great variety of items offered, from plants, to beer/wine making supplies, soaps and lotions, seasonal crafts, food and so much more! The actual building and craftsmanship that went into it is worth the stop alone. It's stunning!

Three floors of wonderful and unique shopping. Everything from handmade items, home decor, antiques, & PLANTS! Not to mention all the vender events and after hours activities like singers and line dancing. Love coming in here and seeing all the new things every week. Highly recommend.

The Southgate is a great place to go if there is an event. Its is open all week all the time but if there is not a specific draw for extra vendors its kind of a lame duck.
