It is FINALLY here.
Tomorrow is the day. Tomorrow is the official grand opening.
Jackson, MS is now the proud owner of a Whole Foods Market.
I was so excited to have the opportunity to attend a tour of our new store!
It was ahhh-mazing! It made me giddy inside and was perfectly tailored to my beloved state!
I have BIG ideas, people. I can’t wait to meet with their Marketing Store Leader to discuss what I want to do and how I want Whole Foods Jackson to be a part of it! I’m pretty sure the rest of my tour group was not as excited as I was. I quietly listened and took in all the information, I perused the items that were already on the shelves, deciding what I wanted to try. I was at the front of the group as often as possible. I eagerly sampled my helping of goodness. I eagerly spoke with my tour guide letting him know that I AM A BLOGGER. I WANT TO BE A PART OF THIS STORE. And he was SO helpful. At the end, he asked if I wanted to know anything else and if I got all the information I came to get. I said yes, but requested a picture, and he quickly replied, “Yes, of course!”
Say hi to Jarrett!
At the end of the tour, they gave us goody bags, of course! It basically came with an entire meal – pasta, chicken broth (they weren’t giving out vegetable broth, although they offered to check the shelves, I told them my parents would eat it) and pasta sauce. Also, I got a booklet of coupons and their February calendar of events! Unfortunately, no one was able to attend with me, so it was rather difficult to get pictures of myself throughout the tour, but here is a sneak peak into the Jackson Whole Foods!

I’ve actually never been in a Whole Foods–I don’t think there’s any close to where we live!
Meg Doherty says
That Whole Foods looks HUGE!!! I love that it’s so customized to Mississippi! I can honestly say I’ve never spent a lot of time in Whole Foods (but there’s one 5 mins for me) so I guess I need to check it out! It seems so big it’s overwhelming haha
