The Park Store at Bent's Old Fort offers many of the same trade goods that were exchanged for bison robes and other peltries at the fort in 1846. A visit to the store links you to the past when Bent's Fort was part of a thriving commercial trading empire. You can purchase replicas of the same goods offered by the Bent brothers and carried along the Santa Fe Trail.

In addition to trade goods, books relating to the Fort, Native Americans, the Sand Creek Massacre, Westward Expansion, historical cooking, and the Santa Fe Trail are available for every age and level of study.

Your purchases directly support educational and scientific research programs at Bent's Old Fort National Historic Site.
