Martins General Store

WOW — went to both this and the produce store down the street. If you go to the main store in downtown Ball Ground it is mainly stocked with nostalgia items, REALLY hard to find candies and sodas that were wonderful to see again. In addition they have a lot of homemade ice cream, fudge, rock candies and gumballs/​jawbreakers that were really unique. Found candies and drinks here that I have not seen in 20 years and wound up spending $ 50 for my next poker game surprise snack bar. After leaving here went to the Produce that is by the main 575 hwy. Be careful or you might miss it. There is a ton of locally farm fresh items from whole ears of corn for $.50 to great tomatoes, apples and other items. We found the back wall full of homemade james, jellies, honey, sauces (the bourbon and apple cinnamon peach are my new favorites) as well as several spices they do in house. Would recommend you check on this one the most as the prices are FAR cheaper than rip of Whole Foods in comparison. Included some pics and encourage to visit if nearby just for the option!

Lovely place to stop and pick up fresh veggies, even some old fashion candy… Love this little place… wish it were on 515 North closer to Jasper!!!

Very sweet owners! The candy selection reminds me of my childhood. The produce is very fresh and a lot of different variety. The ice cream is incredible and very fresh.
