If you grew up in a small Nebraska town, you may remember the general stores that once graced every main street. You could do all of your shopping in one place: groceries, gifts, and even hardware. These shops have all but disappeared, having been replaced by chain grocery stores and big-box stores. But a few of them remain, and this one in Milford is a definite must-visit.
Welcome to Main Street Market!
