3 locations found near Ames

“May 9, 2024 we were passing through and stopped in.

Negatives: The parking lot is not well defined and we ended up in the wrong lot. The signs to find the entry door are not well marked so it took a bit to find a way in. The store is crowded and hard to move in, especially if you would be needing ambulatory assistance such as crutches, a walker, etc.

Positives: The staff was very friendly and helpful. The items were in good shape and well priced. There was at least one stand that displayed products from a local craftsman (love supporting the locals). Very impressed with the well displayed literature about their cause and why they do what they do ( I tend to spend more money when I know it goes back to the community) The store was well lit and well staffed.

Overall: Our experience once we made it in :) was pleasant.”
