NEWS We have
recently changed our approach to fresh food service in the back (the old Side Door Cafe'). Now,
we offer many of the same items conveniently premade, ready to go, along with a growing selection of other wholesome, toothsome, all natural prepared food not available here before, reflecting real seasonal availability. We still have all the delicious salads, soups, sandwiches, and
baked goods you expect, but the layout of the store will shift a lot over the next few weeks, always for the BETTER! Though we will keep a few tables where they were, seating will now be available in the front of the store, too, by the big windows along Main Street. Also, construction began on the courtyard behind the Yokel. Expect a lot more comfortable seating out there (in a great environment) to be ready this Fall. We have expanded our grocery selection nearly 500% since we opened in December 2005. You will find a single-faced expansive selection (look again!)of GOODS FOR THE GOOD LIFE. No, we still do not carry as much as the corporate natural food stores or the cooperatives of large municipalities, but for our small size (1500 square feet of store space) we believe our selection rivals the best. We have added a wide variety of wellness products to naturally care and beautify your body, to improve your nutrition, and to explore an alternative approach to medicine. Over the next several months, expect us to continue to improve our selection, by adding more into areas opened by "closing the cafe'" and refining what we have. As always, your suggestions are so important to us, and we encourage you to tell us what you like or would like to see. |

The internet can get you lost or help you
find. Explore a few places we like to
go... Mr. Wendell Berry of Kentucky - Resources
regarding a simple visionary from our times
observing humanity's relationship with Earth
still hopeful for the future. Michael Pollan - Great writer and
teacher links seemingly disparate philosphical understandings of
the natural world with appropriate issues of considerable concern
to relate signficant and beneficial knowledge. Local
Harvest -
Find farmers' markets, family
farms, and other sources of sustainably grown food in your area,
where you can buy produce, grass-fed meats, and many other good
things. Slow Food USA - International organization
founded in Italy devoted to preserving traditional foodways and
educating people about food as a center of community. Southern Foodways - Founded at the University
of Mississippi in 1977, organization helps preserve
Southern approaches to eating, from farming to cooking. Food Routes - Another way towards enjoying
local food opportunites. One Hundred Mile Diet - A nice idea. The
right reality. Just try it. Organic Consumers Association Rainbow Whole Foods Co-Operative Grocery -
Mississippi's other dedicated natural foods retailer. We love
shopping here, too! Pascagoula River - The Pascagoula remains the last large
free-flowing waterway. Learn why we are so lucky. Black Creek
Wilderness - Forest swath offers Mississippi's longest
hiking trail and sole National River. Nearly the ideal
place for a New Yokel to spend some time. Mississippi Canoe and Kayak Club - Get out
on a local waterway soon and have a good time. Longleaf Trace - A 41 mile
multi-purpose linear park with its primary station here in
Hattiesburg. Soon, the Trace will make its way downtown to the new
Hattiesburg Intermodal Center at the historic Depot. The Andrew Jessup Gallery - Located in Biloxi,
here's the place to find many of Spence Townsend's finest work to
date. Also, Andy hosts several other great Hattiesburg
artists. Dead Man Dancing - Our friend TC

nightlife interesting. Thank you, Tandy! Truckstop Honeymoon - Music we think
everyone should like. |

America uses about 82,000
chemicals; less than a quarter have been
tested for toxicity. |

Humans have farmed for
10,000 years. We have used chemicals for fifty. |

"In its
complexity and its potential longevity, the soil
exceeds our comprehension; we do not know
how to place a just market value on
it, and we will never learn how. Its value is inestimable; we must
value it, beyond whatever price we put on it, by respecting it." --
