Food scene
Locals hangout. Crab cake is huge and very little filler. Don't dress up and they will know you're not a local immediately.

Corner and this place are closest restaurants. I have never personally been yet, but people rave about it. Check hours, they weren't too consistent.

Antques & Thrifting
Jenks This & That in Warsaw and Rivah Paws and a new one that just opened up in Lively are the closest.
Acme Antiques in Tappahannock or Kilmarnock Antique Gallery (Both huge with hours of exploring).
Friends of the Northumberland County Animal Shelter (limited hours, Friday sales. Fri: 10-4, Sat: 9-1, Sun: closed) in Burgess is a really good one.
St. Stephens Episcopal Church Thrift Shop in Heathsville.
There are 3 right next to each other in Kilmarnock (Animal Welfare League, Rivah Consignments and Seconds Unlimited) that are very good.

Farm stands with fresh products
If you want fresh veggies or fruit or baked goods, they are allover the place. Closest is an Amish farm and stand on Route 3 between Farnham and Warsaw that has it all.
A local farm stand on Route 203 (Oldhams Rd) just east of SR620 (Threeway Rd) is our fave, especially for the white corn if it's in season.
