Now this place is unique. It’s a forest village turned shopping center. Unique shops full of homade goods. Also has an emu (an odd looking bird) and a walk thru bamboo forest!

The Umbrella Factory is a delightful assortment of shops, all set within a rustic farmyard ambiance adorned with lively chickens and a serene bamboo forest. Describing this place is challenging; it's an experience best appreciated in person.

Fun place to stop. The grounds appear to be maintained better compared to years ago, but there seem to be fewer animals. Many of the items for sale are more generic and touristy compared to the former hippie- farmer-artist oriented items from years ago.
The Fantastic Umbrella Factory is a series of retail stores in a farmyard setting. Walk through clam shell pathways surrounded by beautiful flowers and greenery to each building. Local and imported handmade goods can be found in each store. Chickens roam free with food available to feed them if you wish. Emus are on sight as well as a bamboo forest with a path throughout. The summer months include a henna artist, food truck and multiple vendors outside.
