Founded in 1840, The Olivesburg General Store was established to provide the basic staples for the survival of the early settlers of Richland County. Six years later, Richland County was divided in half to form Ashland County. Situated near the Richland/Ashland county line, this charmingly rustic General Store has all the atmosphere, flavor and ambiance of the good old days.

Over 163 years of existence, the store today takes you back in time, while marketing a great selection of reasonably priced antiques, hardware, Home Made Chocolates, Gifts, Gift Baskets, Amish crafts, stoves, and specialty groceries. The Ice Cream Bar serves hand dipped ice cream cones, in many of the flavors you haven't had since you were a kid: Butter Pecan, Maple Nut, Black Cherry and Cotton Candy to name a few.  We dip a lot of ice cream (we order two deliveries a week).  Since we sell so much ice cream, your cone or dish will be fresh and taste like it just came from the ice cream maker.  Customers are encouraged to wander around the store with their ice cream and browse over the varied selection of merchandise.  If you are hungry, or would merely like a snack for the road; the Deli has a wide selection of meats and cheeses.  This cheese from the Amish heartland is second to none! Colby, Swiss, Baby Swiss and Smoked Cheddar have proven themselves to be a favorite of our local residents, and visiting customers, alike.  Be sure to ask for a sample of cheese or maybe our famous Beef Jerky.  The Beef Jerky is also sold from our Deli, in any amount desired.  It is the best!  If you are planning a visit to the Olivesburg General Store, you may wish to arrive when we open.  A corner of the store is still a congregating point for friends to meet and enjoy a cup of coffee beside a flickering fireplace and discuss topics from local politics, to the economy.  The conversation and loitering is never ending.  Whatever direction the conversation of the day goes, the coffee is always hot and fresh.

We, the owners and storekeepers, of the Olivesburg General Store invite you to take a step back in time, and visit the good old days. We are a family owned business, providing a friendly atmosphere, ample conversation and down home Americana in liberal portions -- for no extra charge!

Make your plans to come and see us soon, in downtown Olivesburg, Ohio!
