Taylorville provides a unique shopping experience as the city holds a small community feel with a big city selection of products. New shops have opened on the Taylorville Square like Ella's Treasures and More, while Down to Earth Sustainability will be expanding to a new location, right next to Florinda’s on the square.

Dyanne Skinner, owner of Dear Yesteryear and Tallulah Jane's Boutique describes that Taylorville is a shopping destination for community members outside of Taylorville. Skinner mentioned the recent Chillifest weekend as one example of events that bring citizens into the town to enjoy Taylorville's many gems.

Skinner described in one word what makes Taylorville a valuable destination for travelers, she responded with, “variety.” From the many dining destinations to second-hand shops and retailers, Taylorville truly has opportunities for everyone to shop.

A full list of retailers, antique stores, and local restaurants can be found on the Small Town Taylorville website under the “Dine” or “Shop” tabs. The website can be found at smalltowntaylorville.com/.

Dyanne Skinner and Steve Craggs appeared as guests on the WTIM Morning Show.
