The workers were super knowledgeable and kind. We loved hearing his stories as we sifted through our buckets. We got two buckets for twelve dollars each and we are taking home a bunch of goodies!

This place was such a hidden gem! (Get it?). Family owned and ran, they were so friendly and knowledgeable about each stone we found. Sam even took the time to separate all the valuable stones...
