Acadia Traders salesfloor
Acadia Traders
New France hamlet, Busch Gardens Williamsburg, Williamsburg, VA
The Acadia Traders gift shop opened in winter 2016, featuring a selection of Canada-based merchandise; it also had a wine tasting bar during its' first few years, and while the bar itself is still intact they no do the tastings, instead just selling beer from behind the register area. The building was originally used as The Country Store Candle Shop, a store selling hand-carved candles that opened with the park in May 1975. It became The Bitter Root Company Store in 1984, though it appears that the candle carver still occupied a smaller portion of the salesfloor. The entire building became candle carver space again in the early 2010s when it was converted to The Village Candle Carver, which was relocated here in winter 2016.
