The newest village for the Department 56 collection is the Heartwood Creek Village. Heartwood Creek collectibles are made by Jim Shore and this village is said to be what inspires his creations. It adds a mix of folk art and Americana to add a collection that any fan of Jim Shore will want to have. The difference between this village and other villages is that it is missing the distinct snow village feel to it. This is a village you can display year round. There is no snow and it lacks the Christmas decorations that Dept 56 has become known for. To start the collection off there are 3 buildings and 6 accessories to get the collection started.
