All income from sales support the educational activities of the York County Heritage Trust.

Our unique gift shops focus on York’s rich heritage with an emphasis on books. Hundreds of titles include local history, military, crafts, interior design, architecture, cooking, genealogy and children’s.  We encourage you to come in – browse our gifts, stationery, textiles, gourmet foods, toys, jewelry, prints, reproduction photographs, maps and many York-related items.  Gift boxes and shipping are available for a nominal fee.
