She credits God's hand being in this new adventure, bring her together with two other friends. Leah Pinnix and Tera Stegall. The modern mercantile is located in the Old Ford Motor Company in Raymond. The building now registered with the Department of Archives and History and a part of the Blues Trails of Mississippi. The eclectic store specializes in apothecary plants, gardening items, specialty gifts, candles and much more. The Yellow Feather is located inside The Raymond Venue. The Raymond offers a beautiful venue for events. Each room for wedding parties is specially designed for the comfort of all parties. There is a bridal suit that is tucked away inside The Raymond for privacy and convenience to the venue. This room is equipped with all of the necessities a bridal party will need in preparation of the special day.
