Description

Not far from the Virginia border, the small town of Lansing governs a population that hovers around 160 North Carolinians. The vintage store was converted to a Friday night gathering place where local enjoy bluegrass and country music. Live music fills the old white clapboard store and spectators pack in from miles around. The charming mercantile is still owned by the family who operated it when it was the hub of the community.
