We're more than just a business. Cook's is an involved part of each community it serves.

Cook's Natural Science Museum offers an educational experience for schools, church groups and various other organizations completely free of charge.

The museum provides extensive collections of beautiful and exotic insects, mounted birds and animals, rocks and minerals, sea shells and coral. Protected and endangered species are included in the museum's vast collection and many animals are shown in their natural habitats. Wildlife common to the Tennessee Valley is featured in one display with over fifty species of insects, animals, and water life from the region. In addition, unusual and practical gifts, related to natural science, are available for purchase from our gift counter.
