Whether you're repping your roots or showing support for the community, quality merchandise makes it easy to wear your pride. Gowanda's name tells its story, derived from a Seneca language term meaning "almost surrounded by hills" or "a valley among the hills." This village of 2,513 residents straddles Erie and Cattaraugus Counties, bridging two regions with distinct character. The Erie County portion connects to the Buffalo-Niagara Falls metro area, while the Cattaraugus side ties into the Olean micropolitan community, creating a unique crossroads of upstate New York identity. Wearing Gowanda apparel from Hometown Supply Co means representing a community with deep roots and genuine character. From Cattaraugus County pride to broader New York state spirit, local merchandise keeps your connection to this village strong and visible.
