Healthy Goat's Milk Products |
Investing in a Community Asset! This past Monday we held our initial investor's meeting at the store. Both Pittsboro residents, and individuals from as far away as Pinehurst, got an opportunity to meet with the owners and discuss the improvements we are hoping to bring to the store in the near future. If you have visited us in the last few months, you may have experienced some considerable waiting times during our most busy hours. By making these capital investments we hope to improve the speed by which we can serve everyone (and making both staff and customers happier). Over the past several months the store has grown very fast and has nearly tripled its sales volume, but we are now at a stage where some additional investments are necessary to ensure the long term viability and stability of our beloved store. If have questions about investing in the store, please feel free to contact us at info@thegeneralstorecafe.com . Employment at the General Store Café! General Store Café is always looking for quality people for various positions and shifts. Come work in a fun and exciting environment! Previous restaurant or cafe experience a big plus.

The Store is a growing, exciting place to work! |

You won't find a better quality of soap than Christiana's goat milk
soap, made with olive oil, vitamine E, and an an essential oil like peppermint,
lemon, sage, or bay leaf. She even has a soap made especially for arthritic
pain. Local goat farmer, Christiana Herndon's love of goats began as
a little girl growing up in Switzerland. When she came to the United
States, and bought land with her husband in Chatham County, she found
instant comfort from her homesickness with the adoption of a nanny goat
who soon had two kids. Christiana now has 12 Toggenburg milking goats,
a Swiss dariy breed. Her petting zoo what she calls, The Goatsy Galore
Snuggery, can be visited by appointment. She can be contacted at 545-9694
or by email at 
Tabetha is a sweet, young adult cat. At a little over a year old,
she has remained a delicate little girl, with beautiful golden highlights
intermixed with gray tabby stripes and an adorable gold tipped tail.
She is very laid back and easily adjusts to new situations. She is
independent and would be fine if left alone during the day. However,
she really appreciates and welcomes a warm hand to rub against and
kind voice calling her name. Tabetha loves to play with peacock feathers,
scampering and pouncing on them with glee, as they are dragged in front
of her. She is not fond of dogs but enjoys the company of other cats.
For adoption, contact C.A.R.E. at www.chathamanimalrescue.org or
542-5757.

and Sat 10 am-2 pm. For more information, call 542-7203.
