Editor’s Note: The Farm House Store is now permanently closed.
There was once a time when every small town had its own general store, where locals would gather, socialize, eat, and shop. These stores were the heartbeat of the town, but they seem to be few and far between these days. Recently, one of these classic general stores has opened in the small river town of Cloverport and it may just be what every Kentucky town needs. The Farm House Store not only has everything you may want, but it also has everything you need in a one-stop-shop store and diner.
The town of Cloverport is located on the Ohio River in Western Kentucky and is filled with residents who love their town and want to see it thrive.
