Ruch Country Store

Got My Eclipse Gum & Taylor’s Sausage!
SITREP
A very friendly country store ALMOST in the middle of nowhere (and I say that since the cell phone coverage was almost nonexistent — and without GPS, we got lost, and that’s how we found this place — looking for directions!)
THE SETUP
This is also in the middle of Southern Oregon Wine Country, so there are vast opportunities for people to stop on in here and grab their picnic supplies to do some tailgating or picnicking at a local winery.
My friend Alexandra used to shop here with her family when she was a little girl, so it was a kick-​in-​the-​pants to see this spot as a grown up, and to be expected, the place seemed a LOT smaller to her.
ITEMS
* I needed some gum and I got it.
* They specialize in the local Taylor Sausage, so I had to grab a package and throw it in my cooler to take back to California.
THE LOWDOWN
All in all, a very cute and unexpected stop in a very quaint down town along the Lewis & Clark Trail in Southern Oregon Wine Country.

This store serves the Ruch/​Applegate area with not only the basic food items and a very good deli but has specialty foods that ordinarily you would find only in a city market. It also stocks locally produced food
There is out door seating. Stop by for a snack, lunch or camping supplies.
