There’s something magical about stumbling upon a hidden gem—a place where creativity thrives, community flourishes, and unique finds await. That’s exactly the kind of experience the Best Kept Secrets Tour delivers!
This highly anticipated shopping, food, and fun adventure showcases some of the most delightful and off-the-beaten-path small businesses in Lancaster County. And this year, Bricker Village is excited to be part of the journey, with two of our own specialty shops—Roots to Wings Studio & Designs and Lorah’s Handmade Chocolates & Gifts—featured on the tour!
What is the Best Kept Secrets Tour?
If you’ve never taken part in this unique event, you’re in for a treat. The Best Kept Secrets Tour is designed like a self-guided home or garden tour, where you travel in your own vehicle from shop to shop, discovering new favorite spots along the way. Your ticket gives you access to exclusive discounts, giveaways, refreshments, live demonstrations, and a chance to win over $1,000 in gift cards. The next Lancaster County Best Kept Secrets Tour runs from April 3 – 19, 2025, with tickets going on sale February 3.
