The Grove Mercantile Owners

Lori always had dreams of opening up a small retail boutique, but the timing never seemed quite right.  When we discovered the town of Groveland a few years ago, everything about the quaint mountain community at the gateway to Yosemite National Park reminded us of a Hallmark movie, and we knew we had found the right place to open up shop. 

 

The only question that remained was how to draw people into a beautiful retail shop just off the main highway?  

 

That’s when we decided that what Groveland truly needed was not only retail store, but a high quality, hand-crafted ice cream shop!

 

Although some people thought we were crazy to blend these two ideas into one store, we knew our vision could work seamlessly!

kindess & joy
 

WE AIM TO SERVE
 

ONE SCOOP AT A TIME.

HOW DOES ONE MEASURE HAPPINESS, JOY, OR A SIMPLE

I FEEL GOOD WHEN IM HERE?

So we started brainstorming and decided we wanted to aim to please the five senses:

-Delicious Tastes 
-Happy Music
-Amazing Aromas 
-Buttery-Soft Fabrics
-Things That Are Visually Pleasing To The Eye

We are motivated by kindness, happiness, community, and being able to offer treats & gifts that we are proud of!

 

We aim to offer high-quality products, the best handcrafted ice cream, friendly staff, and not settling for the status quo.

 

WE VALUE QUALITY, ATTENTION TO DETAIL, AND HOPING YOU ALWAYS LEAVE THE STORE FEELING INSPIRED AND IN BETTER SPIRITS THEN WHEN YOU ENTERED.

WE CAN’T WAIT TO SEE YOU THERE!
