 THIS GNOME DOOR'S STORY IN A NUTSHELL . . .

The Gnome 
Country Store 


The fruits of harvest & cooperation

Picture
         Gnome Country Store is owned by the Mayor of Gnome Valley and his wife, Larrs and Petunia Eliasen. The store is a place where gnomes exchange the creations they have made from the produce that grows in abundance in the Gnome Valley. Most gnomes are very active in the agriculture business, either as a side hobby, a part-time Usefulness, or as their complete Usefulness in life.  Many gnomes in the community help the human orchardists tend their crops.  They keep an eye on the orchards during the night.  They help dry or warm the fruit at critical times and they make sure that pests and diseases stay in check (they also, on occasion, use a little gnome magic to protect or heal a tree or orchard from damage). 
     In the first part of the 20th century, the Eliasens had a strong working relationship with the Tertsagian and Balaban families, the founders of Liberty Orchards, a famous orchard in the human community of Cashmere, Washington.  In the 1930s and 40s, as Liberty Orchards was perfecting their delicious Aplets & Cotlets recipe and process, both gnomes and fairies frequently helped them. 

     Today, the Eliasens enjoy a strong business in their country store.  It is favored by both local and traveling gnomes as an ideal place to find special gifts and mementos for family and friends.  In fact, the store does a very strong telepathic business - receiving many orders a day either through telepathy or animal post (gnomes haven't yet embraced the World Wide Web as a useful business tool.  Maybe they will someday soon!).  The Eliasens have two grown children who have children of their own and recently, on May 3, 2014, Larrs and Petunia became foster parents for two adorable gnome children from Canada – Sonja and Kolby Switzelberg.
