Shopping in Egg Harbor
9 places, each with a quick take from us — kept current as hours and seasons change.
Bay Trading Company
Architectural salvage on Highway 42 in Egg Harbor — stained-glass windows, fireplace mantels, and the kind of old-building pieces nobody else up here carries, from about twenty vendors under one barn roof. A real treasure hunt if you're restoring an old house or just love the looking. Open-air and seasonal, so dress for the weather.
Cappaert Contemporary Gallery
The contemporary corner of Egg Harbor's art scene, set in an 1873 log cabin above the bay. Owner Ginnie Cappaert shows her own abstracted-landscape paintings alongside 40-some regional and national artists in glass, clay, encaustic, and mixed media, with a sculpture path and her working studio on site.
Greens N Grains Natural Food Market & Café
Northern Door County's full-service natural food market, a vegetarian café folded into an organic grocery in downtown Egg Harbor. Shop the organic produce and gluten-free shelves, then order at the juice bar: fresh-pressed veggie juices, smoothies, and espresso. In summer the café adds a food menu, including a Roma panini heaped with fresh mozzarella. Café open daily until 4.
Main Street Market
Egg Harbor's full-service grocery, locally owned since 1987 and the place to provision a cottage kitchen. Grab a roasted chicken and a deli pizza for the cabin, then work the wine, beer and liquor aisle that's deep enough to stock the whole week.
Olde Orchard Antique Mall
A multi-vendor antique mall on Highway 42 in Egg Harbor, decades into its run — the browse-the-booths kind of place where you lose an hour and turn up something you weren't looking for.
Plum Bottom Gallery
Chad Luberger's pottery studio grew into one of the county's best craft galleries — 20 acres on Plum Bottom Road showing 150-plus artists in clay, glass, metal, fiber, and jewelry, his wheel and Angela's jewelry bench working on-site. Can't get out to the farm? They've added storefronts in downtown Egg Harbor, Fish Creek, and Sturgeon Bay.
Shades of the Past
A genuine estate-antiques shop on Highway 42 in Egg Harbor — silver, cut crystal, china, and glassware filling a bright-yellow building, going since 1973. This is the real thing, not a gift shop with a few old signs out front. Seasonal, so call ahead for hours.
Wood Orchard Market
A big roadside farm market on Highway 42 north of Egg Harbor, stocked largely from the Wood family's own 200-plus acres of cherries, apples, and berries. Get the cherry strudel, baked daily alongside the pies, doughnuts, and fudge made on site. Third-generation growers since 1955; the market itself opened in 1996.
Woodwalk Gallery
A renovated dairy barn on ten acres south of Egg Harbor, showing 75-plus makers in painting, sculpture, ceramics, glass, and locally built furniture. It doubles as a venue — Midsummer's Music concerts, farm-to-table dinners, and off-season winter markets all happen here, so check the calendar before you go.
