Little House on the Prairie’s Melissa Gilbert received an outpouring of adoration when she arrived in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, for her first ever Modern Prairie Warehouse sale in early September. Over 1,000 fans of the star and her wardrobe, kitchen, and home decor line showed up and got the chance to connect personally with Gilbert, who, in tandem with the sale, raised over 1,000 pounds of food to support the local Beaver Dam Food Pantry.

Gilbert gave thanks to city leaders, community volunteers and her fans. “This was a remarkable day,” Gilbert said.
