Turner & Co. Apothecary is located in Suite 102 at the new Biltmore Courtyard Shops, 18 Brook Street, just south of La Paz Restaurant on Sweeten Creek Road. Turner & Co. Apothecary is open Monday � Saturday from 10 AM � 6 PM; closed Sunday. For more information, please call the store at 828-277-1205 (fax 828-277-1206).
