About

The Rock, Fossil, and Dinosaur Shop is where children and adults can pan for gems, dig for fossils, go on a mining adventure, and visit the gift shop!

Story

Under new ownership as of 2017, the Rock, Fossil, & Dinosaur Shop is all new! Well, we kept many of the fantastic activities that past patrons will know and new patrons will love. Run by an elementary school teacher and early childhood education professional of more than twenty years, the Shop is now geared more toward providing patrons with a more comprehensive, personal experience, as opposed to a transactional experience.

The Shop offers sluicing, digging, sifting, and a world of rocks, fossils, and dinosaurs for children to explore and learn about. The Shop blends an outdoor prehistoric world, archeology, and gem prospecting in a fun, physically engaging, educational experience for children of all ages and adults alike.

Strike it rich! The Shop offers real gem prospecting. Pan for your own gemstones, minerals, and treasures. Explore mine shafts filled with hidden treasures. Keep the treasures you find, but make sure you wear your hard hat and lamp!

Mine, dig up dinosaur remains, explore outdoor fossils and dinosaur exhibits, or just peruse the Shop's extensive inventory of fine gemstones, fossils, and other items!

We can host birthday parties, fundraisers, field trips, and the like!

I've been going here since I was a kid and this place is great, they have a good selection of dinosaur models outside and some really cool little fossils and different types of stone to purchase inside. They also have an area where kids can pan for gold which is fun but a little on the expensive side. Overall a great place that me and my child love to go to.

Great shop. New owner is very informative and really interested in helping kids learn. Many nice things to purchase as gifts. Great field trip destination for students.

We had my son's 6th birthday here and it was fantastic - I highly recommend stopping in or planning to spend some time here. If you have kids, there are great activities - digging for fossils/gems (which they get to keep - and there are real fossils in there), mining for gems (again, real, and they keep them), and panning for gold (ok, no gold, but great crystals etc). Tons of stuff to see and read about, nice area out back with picnic tables to have a snack while you're exploring. Really great outing for any time you're passing by, but also a GREAT place for a birthday party.

Gift shop with rocks, dinosaur toys, and fossils! The rocks and crystals are absurdly cheap, a fraction of the price you'd pay in Boston or Northampton. For example, they sell amethyst for $4 per pound. Panning for "gold" was super fun even as an adult. We got a piece of amethyst the size of a fist and petrified wood with amber still in it. Out back are life size recreations of dinosaurs. 10/10!

Absolutely loved browsing the gift shop. The big dinosaurs outside are a little cheesy, but we like it that way. Neat little roadside attraction like the old days. Worth a stop, with or without kids!
