Ben Franklin is a long-standing, locally owned business and the last of its kind in Iowa. It is a one-stop-shop and a crafters paradise, offering everything from fabric, toys, and collectibles to makeup, home decor, books, and supplies for any hobby. They have most anything you need, including household supplies and team apparel. In spring, they offer a nice variety of greenhouse garden plants. The store is very clean. The staff provides amazing, great, and friendly customer service; they are lovely and helpful. It is wonderful to still have this dedicated business in the community.
I drove down from Zimmerman, Minnesota because I haven't been to a Benjamin Franklin in years. I was so happy to be able to shop here with my teenage daughter who now loves the store. Fun to find vintage items. Now that we found the store we will try to stop in a few times a year.

Remins me of my younger days. They still stamp the price on every item with a price gun. It has a little bit of everything and that small hometown feeling.
