What) The owner of Agawa Indian Crafts spends most winters visiting native craft co-operatives and individual craftspeople to ensure that the Agawa can offer a wide variety of high-quality aboriginal art and crafts. We stock genuine birch bark canoes, wolf and bear hides, and some incredible artwork. The Globe and Mail calls this store "a virtual treasure trove of gifts for the entire family." Visitors who have travelled the length and breadth of our country often declare that Agawa Crafts is unique among gift stores in Canada.
Our store
is located on Pancake Bay, named many years ago by fur traders
who often made their last stop here before a final day of
paddling to Sault St. Marie. It was on the shores of this bay
that they used the last of their supplies to make a meal of
pancakes, knowing that fresher food and a rest were only one
more day away. (1)
Where) It's on the only highway and there are lots of signs. 1-800-656-9676
Why) I actually had no intention of stopping in at this store but Pam had been trying to find moccasins on this trip and this place looked promising.
