Let’s help keep the Junction City Store pumping!
I met Amber last year at a Halloween event where I was selling empanadas. She tried them, loved them, and asked if she could carry them at the Junction City Store. I remember being so happy about it. When you have a small business, it really means a lot when another local business believes in what you’re doing and gives you a place on their shelves.
Since then, we’ve loved having our empanadas at the JC Store, and I’m really grateful for all the support Amber has given Nacha’s Empanadas.
When I heard that their gas pump — after 50 years! — had finally stopped working, I wanted to find a little way for us to help too. The pump is such an important part of Junction City, especially when the next place to get gas means driving all the way into town.
So during the month of August, $2 from every Nacha’s Empanada purchased at Junction City Store will go toward the fund for their new gas pump.
If you’re passing through Junction City, stop by, grab some empanadas and say hi to Amber.
And if you’d like to help them directly, I’ll put their GoFundMe in the comments too.
We’re really happy to be a tiny part of helping keep the JC Store going.
