In 1995, Christa Poore turned a long-held dream into reality by opening Christa's Country Corner/General Store with her husband, Sam Poore. Sam was already the owner and operator of a popular "Choose & Cut" Christmas Tree Farm that resides directly behind the store and is still in operation today. And of course you will find Moses - the true celebrity of Christa's. After a "checkered and shady" past, Moses adopted Christa and Sam and now the lovable yellow lab can always be found when you stop in for a visit. And let's not forget our newest mascot "Monroe". This gentleman is always quiet and professional, completely stable in his emotions, and will probably have the same clothes on a year from now as he does today.

While the general store will most likely have anything that you might need in your travels, it is the incredible food that you will most certainly come to remember. In fact, people consistently go out of their way just to taste Christa's chicken and dumplin's, meatloaf, cornbread, or smoked pork BBQ on yeast rolls. Christa and her cousin, Janine Hughes, will greet you with a warm smile and serve you with a lunch that you will make you want to come back again and again.
