If you’re looking for something fun and local, make a quick drive just outside of Owensboro because a place so many families already love is celebrating a BIG milestone, and you’re invited!

10 Years of Community Love

Whitesville Mercantile is turning 10, and this celebration is all about the people who made it possible.

From day one, this small-town favorite has been built on community, and the family behind it says it best:

We can’t believe it’s been 10 amazing years! From day one to today, your support, loyalty, and encouragement have meant everything to us. As a small business, every purchase, recommendation, and kind word has helped us grow and continue doing what we love. We truly wouldn’t be here without YOU. Thank you for being part of our journey… here’s to many more to come!

And, now it's time to celebrate this huge milestone!

Mark Your Calendar

Circle Saturday, June 6th, because that’s when the party happens!

They’re going all out from 9 to 5 with 10 big giveaways, sales throughout the store, and plenty of reasons to hang out for a while. It’s the perfect excuse to spend the day shopping local and soaking up the fun.

Live Music and A Brand New Stage

This year’s celebration comes with something brand new. The debut of the Whitesville Wellness Stage!

They’re even looking for artists to be part of the day, so if you’ve got some musical talent, this is your moment. You’ll have live music, a great crowd, and a brand new space to perform, and it really doesn’t get much better than that.
