The owners of Pleasantree Gift Shoppe, which has been in business for nearly three decades, plan to retire in February and close the store.

“It is definitely a bittersweet time for us,” the store’s owners wrote in a message posted to its social media accounts. “We are so grateful for your business over the years and feel blessed by the friendships we have made, but it is time to say goodbye to the Pleasantree and see what new adventures await each of us.”
