Dover’s Piggly Wiggly

If you asked me which store in the county I frequented the most, hands down in would be our local Piggly Wiggly.

“The Pig”, as it’s affectionately called, is our only local grocery store.  What a lovely place it is!  Always clean, friendly employees, and usually bustling with locals.

I almost always find myself drawn into a conversation with either a friend I haven’t seen in a while or one of the employees.  I love that I can bump into just about anyone there!  Just last week I looked up in the produce aisle and there stood my delightful mother-in-law, Hope.

Are there a lot of gluten free or organic options?  Nope.  Due to limited space, they can only stock what they know they’ll be able to sell.  You’ll need to ride on to a bigger town to find those items.  Are there 17 different kinds of jerky for sale?  You betcha.

Locally owned by Brien and Pam Dill, The Pig is a constant supporter of community events and non-profits.  Brien and Pam are truly fantastic people.  The younger kids that work there are trained on customer service from Day 1, which is a bit of a rarity these days.  I sure hope my kids can work there when they get a little older!
