Fantastic Umbrella Factory
Fantastic Umbrella Factory Review
The hippy dippy, kid-friendly Fantastic Umbrella Factory has four rustic shops built around a wild garden. For sale are hardy perennials and unusual daylilies, jewelry, vintage eyewear, pottery, blown glass, penny candy, greeting cards, crafts, and incense. There is also the BYOB Small Axe Cafe serving organic foods. For 50¢ you can scoop a cone full of seeds to feed the fenced-in emus, guinea hens, and ducks.
