Small Ohio village provides relaxing, pastoral charm

Rural Pastoral Close Knit Relaxed Wooded

Sunbury Ohio is about 40 minutes north of Columbus. The village is located on a New-England-style town square, giving the community a quaint, close-knit feel. The small town offers pastoral activities the entire family can enjoy. Visit the Glass Rooster Cannery, where you can reminisce on simpler times and practice sustainability by learning how to make preserves, soap, lip balm, and homemade pasta. Admire nature, take a stroll, or geocache in Hogback Ridge Park, one of several parks and natural areas near Sunbury. Go antiquing at one of the nine shops and malls in the town square. The town also hosts flea markets three times a year. Sunbury is filled with family-owned restaurants that make simple but delicious food. Try out PJ’s Family Restaurant known for great pizza, wings, and cooking classes. If you’re looking for a quiet, rural, but charming small town, Sunbury is ideal.
