Walking into the Secret Garden Tea Room & Gift Shop is like walking into a tea room in England. The historic Sumner house has been refurbished to hold all the beauty, quality and craftsmanship of a late 1800s homestead. The tea rooms are eloquently decorated with Victorian charm. Tea is served in China tea pots, with china tea cups and saucers and silver spoons for stirring your cream. The food is worth throwing your diet to the wind and being thankful you don't have to stop before you finish your homemade scone and jam because your corset is laced too tightly.
Scones to take home are also available and freshly prepared as you wander through the beautiful gift shop adorned with matching sets of Victorian-style and modern china, a large variety of tea for purchase, gift items of jewelry and tea time necessities, just to name a few.
Looking for that perfect cookie cutter, a mini-whisk, a kitschy novelty item or something to make your home smell wonderful? The Simple Kitchen/Simple Tidings carries these items and so much more. This unique shop, in business since 1984, sells lots of sundry items, from pots and pans to cookbooks to greeting cards.
Alley on Main comprises three stores within one location: BB's Closet, Johnson's Furniture and Cabbages and Kings.
BB's Closet carries consignment women's fashion clothing and accessories from many high-end brands. The stock is always in excellent condition, and some items appear to never have been worn.
Johnson's Furniture has been selling antique and refurbished furniture and home decor out of this location since 1993, through three store owners. Now a location owner, it offers excellent quality products at prices lower than most secondhand (non-refurbished) locations.
Cabbages and Kings offers vintage products focusing on home decor and collector's items. A sure stop for antique shoppers.
High quality accessories and treats does not begin to touch all of the hundreds of wonderful items available at A Picket Fence in downtown Sumner.

Customers will sense this as soon as entering by the friendly staff and will see all of the quality merchandise, hand-picked to be a treat for any shopper. It is a difficult store to leave without purchasing something.
