It's Festival Time!
Since 2020 we've hosted a spring and fall rockhound festival at our stores. If you are interested in being a vendor, musician/entertainment or setting up a workshop, please contact us. We average about 3-4,000+ people in attendance on festival day, as long as the weather is good.

Henpecked Dawgs is a Celtic and Americana Quartet. Leigh, Harvey, Richard ,and Jenni come from a variety of musical backgrounds from musical theater to Irish golk to bagpipe bands. We're not sure how it works either, but it does. In our shows we may include a renaissance tune, a song from the American folk tradition, a Celtic ballad, a boisterous Sea Chanty, or a raucous Irish jig. Who knows? We certainly don't. From haunting to happy our goal is to bring joy to all who come to see us.
