WALNUT - The community of Walnut found its niche in society through their appreciation for longevity and uniqueness.Known as a town that measures in yesterday's treasures, Walnut has been dubbed "Iowa's Antique City" since 1985. On average, 18 stores line Antique City Drive, the town's main street, attracting people from all over the world.
Antique collectors will have the opportunity to visit all the shops during the 27th Annual Antique Christmas Walk held this Friday through Sunday.
Strolling carolers, a Christmas tree festival, the "Goose Man" and free photos of Santa are just a few aspects that make up the walk.
While the Christmas Walk is Walnut's second biggest day to sell antiques, Hilligas said the intent is to create an old-fashioned shopping experience.
