The Craft Shed opened in June of 1975.

The Craft Shed started as a part time business in a small building behind Rita's house but in a couple of short months had to move to a larger store on Main Street.
The "Shed" carries many craft and art supplies. There are many hand crafted gift items for sale also. The girls offer classes evenings in many crafts.Acquisition
