Country Store at Noble Horizons Auxiliary

17 Cobble Rd., Salisbury, CT | www.noblehorizons.org/get-involved/auxiliary | Social: @noblehorizons

Open year-round, the Country Store at Noble Horizons not only serves as a welcoming place for residents and visitors but also generates essential funds that support special services and activities. Managed by Karen Bennett, the store benefits from the dedication of volunteers, some of whom help regularly by tending the store, while others contribute to special events. The proceeds from the Country Store, along with the Auxiliary’s Holiday Market, Book, and Tag Sales, contribute significantly to the Noble community, and because Noble Horizons is a nonprofit, shopping at the Country Store is tax free.
