This April you may finally see the Astoria Company Store create their products right as they make them.
The Astoria Company in Sullivan is a tiny company doing a big thing, said one of the owners Timmy Valentine. The store, which originally opened about 13 years ago as a fundraising company, sells an extensive variety of handmade products such as lotions, soaps, scrubs, and its well-known bamboo charcoal face mask.
