Just an FYI- Per converstaion with staff, the bears at Three Bears General Store were rescued from a kill farm. The species shown in the video has a life expectancy of 20-24 years. This bear just celebrated its 27th birthday.

good to know … I couldn’t really make out the “features” of the enclosure, but I don’t think that Fish and Game would let them be abused in any way … that’s a comfort 🤗

Thank you for clarifying this because until now, I was planning to avoid 3 Bears. Also, you said they gave big boy shirts - do you know what sizes they go up to?

Thank you for clarifying where the Bears have come from originally. I have avoided that shop due to the shop having beers on the premises. I believe PETA brought this shop to my attention and I believe they were trying to rescue the Bears. I just hope that the berries are treated well.

Another surprise is the Moon Pie General Store just up the parkway from Three Bears. Moon Pie General store is HUGE!! It is much larger than what it appears on the outside with a large downstairs also, with so many unique gifts and books. For those Yankees like myself, the Moon Pie and RC Cola is a Southern Tradition, still made at the Chattanooga Bakery.

One of our favorite stores to shop at while we are here on vacation. I love how it's family owned and operated because most of the time these mom and pop stores sell out to big corporate and it's not the same. I think when we went with the kids we walked around for like 3 hours looking at everything than picking up some gifts here and there.
