The best souvenirs come with a story.
When we set out to create a collection of Discover Bedford County merchandise, we knew we didn't want to order items from a catalog. We wanted every piece to reflect the creativity, craftsmanship, and character of the place we call home.
That's why we partnered with local artists and makers to create exclusive items you won't find anywhere else.
From handcrafted pottery and locally designed greeting cards to custom t-shirts, jewelry, home fragrance, and keepsakes, each item was thoughtfully created to celebrate Bedford County and the talented people who make it so special.
Find:
• earrings & key chains from Smoward Studio
• cards from From Blossoms
• Discover Bedford County t-shirts with custom designs from William Snyder III
• exclusive Unexpected Scent Room Spray and Essential Oil from Mahendi Projects
• clay pottery items from Pigeon Hill Studios
• Bedford and Bedford County decorative pendants from Gracie Lou
When you shop at the Discover Bedford County Welcome Center, you're not just taking home a souvenir. You're taking home a piece of Bedford County's story while supporting the artists who help tell it.
Stop scrolling, stop in, and discover the collection for yourself.
