Wyoming is full of so many hidden gems. There are hundreds of historic buildings that date back to the earliest days of the state, back when trappers ran trading posts and outlaws hung out in local saloons. Some of these buildings have been converted to completely new purposes. The old Farson Mercantile, which was once a general store and trading post, is now known for serving up the biggest and best ice cream cones you’ll ever get to try.

The Farson Mercantile is located way out in Sweetwater County. The town of Farson is only home to about 300 people, and the Merc itself dates back to 1902.

The original Farson Mercantile burned down, but the town rallied and it was rebuilt in the 1930s. The building from the 1930s is the one still standing today!
Today, the store is a bit more than just a trading post. It serves up delicious food to travelers making their way through the county. Coney Dogs are a local favorite, too.
