- Established in 1914, The Todd General Store (originally Cook Brothers General Store) was built by Walter and Monroe Cook in anticipation of the arrival of the Norfolk and Western "Virginia Creeper" railroad. It is a contributing property in the Todd Historic District, which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The oldest operating store in Ashe County, it remains "the gathering place" for local residents where stories of days past are still swapped, relationships are built, and community spirit nourished.
See how the new owners of the Todd General Store reflect the culture and values of this small mountain community.

I was so sad when it burned we have been coming to Todd every year for probably 20yrs. The Bare side of my family is from Jefferson.
Our community is deeply saddened that just days ago we lost this landmark to a consuming blaze. Sooo sad.
It burned to the ground four months after this video. Incredibly sad.
Who Burned down the store? Who didn't like the store there...
