The History of Myrtle Mills Factory Store

Farmington Valley CT Heritage Network’s presentation “The History of Myrtle Mills Factory Store” with lifelong Unionville resident and community leader Tim LeBouthillier will take attendees through the fascinating journey of Myrtle Mills Factory Store, from its early beginnings and wartime contributions to its post-war retail innovations and eventual closure in the mid-1970s. Through archival photos, advertisements, and anecdotes, the presentation will bring to life the story of a knitting mill that helped shape Unionville’s history and left an indelible mark on the American retail landscape. Audience members will also have the opportunity to share their memories. Light refreshments will be served.
