A slice of history will be your portion as you tour this active mill. April Anderson, the new master miller does a fantastic job of bringing history to life. You can purchase all kinds of freshly ground flour, cornmeal, grits and many other items. This stop is worth the drive!

We spent Good Friday 2025 (with a school field trip) at Wade's Mill. April did a fantastic job of touring us around this historic mill. Merle was a wonderful greeter and enjoyed all the tiny hands that wanted to pet him. The shop is excellent. It's so hard to find non-GMO products and Wade's has an excellent selection of these goods. They even sell local honey and seasoned flour, folks. It is worth the drive just to visit their shop.

I kind of fell in love with this place! They go out of your way to show you how things were done and worked (including cut-outs so you can see things moving as the water wheel turns) and explain the different varieties they mill. There are two levels above where you can see the old equipment running, and in the gift shop you can choose what grains you'd like and they go upstairs and mill them fresh. You can even hike along the creek to see the little waterfall and a bit past it to see the actual dam. Beautiful area, you can tell the original owner and new owner (who were both there) really cared about the place and what they are doing.
