Inspired by a trip to Carmel California, Earl Jamison founded Peddler's Village in 1962 on six acres of property once known as Hentown. The property had housed a chicken hatchery, a barn and chicken coops. Earl transformed them into 14 shops and the Cock 'n Bull Restaurant. The buildings, nestled amid winding brick pathways and award-winning gardens, reflected the architectural style of colonial America, a style he maintained consistently.
 

Peddler's Village has grown to become one of the premier attractions in Bucks County. Today, the 42-acre site boasts 70 unique specialty shops, six restaurants, the 70-room luxurious Golden Plough Inn, and Giggleberry Fair, a family entertainment center featuring an antique operating carousel. Free special events and seasonal festivals draw nearly 3 million visitors to Peddler's Village annually. The complex has become a sought-after site for weddings, holiday parties, reunions, picnics, and corporate meetings.
