This is a model small town store for remote communities: necessities and a few luxuries; a corner housing a tiny secondhand shop; the local food bank; a pass-through door to showers and a laundromat; post office boxes. The entire enterprise operates as a nonprofit community service staffed by volunteers, many who are members of the local Seventh-day Adventist Church. The Church owns the building, which also houses a kitchen and community center downstairs. Volunteers serve a homemade vegetarian lunch on Tuesdays for all comers, as is the custom in every community with an active congregation. Weekly free lunch is one of the most welcoming customs in this area. Essentials General Store is housed in the building on Main Street called "The People Place." It offers the only services of its kind within a thirty-minute drive of this town.

This place has gone down every since Brad sold the store. The new owners have no idea what they are doing.
